# Thaddeus Fulford-Jones

> Thaddeus Fulford-Jones is the London-born, MIT-trained engineer who co-founded and leads Radial (formerly Radial Analytics), a Concord, Massachusetts healthtech company that uses AI to guide clinicians through the high-stakes 'crossroads moments' of patient care - especially deciding where a patient should go after leaving the hospital. A serial founder, he earlier built and sold Locately, a pioneering GPS shopper-analytics firm acquired in 2012, before turning his fascination with behavioral 'nudge theory' and large-scale data toward value-based care.
