Poverty to Success: Jamaican Dr. Kingsley Chin's Journey a Harvard Grad, Orthopedic Surgeon, and CEO

"I wanted to prove to myself that I could rise to the highest level of success." Dr. Chin sits down with Ian Boyne to tell his story, from struggle to strength and success, and explains why he wants to be "the most successful businessman to ever come out of [his] home country in Jamaica."

For the past 10 years, Dr. Kingsley R. Chin built a billion dollar portfolio of health and technology companies as the CEO and managing partner at KICVentures, an investment firm he co-founded in 2005. Dr. Chin is a Harvard trained orthopedic spine surgeon with business and information technology experience who sees a niche opportunity where medicine, business, and information technology meet, and is uniquely experienced at the intersection of these three professions. He grew up extremely poor in Jamaica to a single teenage mother and this he feels fuels his desire to prove himself, achieve financial freedom, and impact the world. He got his big break when he received a soccer scholarship to the prestigious Columbia University in New York City in 1984. He was the first in his family to attend college. He landed in NYC with only $47 in his pocket and never complained or looked back. He excelled as a scholar athlete and was the Ivy League Player of the Year, president of his senior class, and member in the Electrical Engineering Honors Society Eta Kappa Nu. He gained notable business experience working at AT&T Bell Labs and Accenture, where he consulted at Cigna Insurance and Goldman Sachs prior to attending Harvard Medical School, and graduated with honors and four diplomas. He is a board-certified and double fellowship trained orthopedic spine surgeon and spent four years as the chief of spine surgery at the University of Pennsylvania, where he began developing KICVentures. He spends up to 10% of his time teaching as a professor and in clinical practice and research. He values time management and his health as his two top priorities.
