We are super stoked to finish our first real event in NYC in over a year. After running over 600 virtual events (no, that is not a typo!) we kicked off the #MedMo ReOpen the World Tour in Chicago two weeks ago. The Event was great, but it wasn't in our hometown, not in OUR City with our people. That is why we are so pleased to have over 100 people to come and 7 amazing startups that will knock your socks off. The Panelists including Shereese Maynard, MS, MBA, George T Mathew MD, Inderpal Chhabra MD, Sunita Parajuli, Gaurav Mehta, and Gail Zhatz are amazing as well.

Las Vegas was the last stop on the 2022 MedStartr Momentum (#MedMo) World Tour. We had seven great teams on stage out of a field of over 300 applicants. We did not declare winners because to get to the stage all the teams went through reviews by over 40 MedStartr Mentors as well as a due diligence process that was rigorous. What the teams were really competing against was the inertia of the healthcare system and in that sense they all won, as many great conversations leading to adoption and investment started through this event and many are now portfolio companies.
