Uncertainty dominates the healthcare spectrum, with the HHS led by the most anti-establishment head in modern times, Robert Kennedy Jr. It is sparking a lot of conversation about what the impact will be on vaccines, preventive care, health equity, and more. It’s the perfect time to attend our healthcare conference to speak with investors, startups and healthcare stakeholders to share perspectives and gain insight to plan for the future. MedCity INVEST, a boutique healthcare investor conference, offers the perfect forum for these conversations. INVEST is scheduled for May 20-21 at the Willis Tower in Chicago.
INVEST will spotlight panel discussions on investment trends, AI in healthcare, the latest developments on GLP-1 drug coverage, health systems’ strategic priorities and more. The conference also showcases startups as part of the Pitch Perfect contest, where entrepreneurs across biopharma, medtech, devices and diagnostics, and health tech present their technologies to teams of investor judges who will dissect their business plans and strategies, and select winners in each track. Startups who register for INVEST are eligible to sign up for Ask the Investor, where investors meet with small groups of startups, discuss investment strategies and share guidance in response to questions.
Among the executives speaking at INVEST are:
- Jasmi Shah, Cigna Ventures Managing director
- Shawn Gremminger, National Alliance of Healthcare Purchaser Coalitions CEO
- Michelle Hoffmann, Chicago Biomedical Consortium executive director
- Samson Magid, HealthSnap Co-founder and CEO
- Matt Martin, Pathway Bioventures Partner
