Ritankar Das, Founder of AI-focused Titan Holdings, is reviving the traditional holding company model with a vision tailored for the AI era. Das, who founded Titan Holdings in 2014, aims to apply AI across various industries, including healthcare and finance. His company operates without outside limited partners, funding itself through previous exits while selectively raising capital for its operating businesses. Titan currently oversees five ventures, including Dascena, acquired by CirrusDx in 2022, and Forta Health, which raised $55 million in 2024.
The latest addition, Tala Health, has secured a $100 million seed round led by Sofreh Capital with participation from former Merck CEO Dr. P. Roy Vagelos. Tala is developing an agentic AI platform designed to improve patient care and has secured contracts with three major U.S. insurers. Das said, “Wealthy folks, for a long time, have been able to afford concierge medicine. We believe that type of concierge at-home care is going to reach more and more people.”
