Lessons from Healthcare Entrepreneurs

Being a healthcare entrepreneur can be messy — just ask ExplORer Surgical CEO Jennifer Fried and Clearstep CEO Adeel Malik. In an event co-produced with The University of Chicago Polsky Center for Innovation and UChicago Medicine’s Center for Healthcare Delivery Science and Innovation, the seasoned entrepreneurs joined Dr. David Beiser, a practicing emergency physician, mentor to rising health tech entrepreneurs and entrepreneur himself for a conversation about the entrepreneurial journey. They discussed the ups and downs they’ve experienced while building their businesses, lessons they’ve learned along the way and help they’ve received with a goal to inspire the future entrepreneurs in the audience and encourage the next generation of healthcare providers to think innovatively to improve healthcare delivery.
