MDG Boston: Why Connect?Our Members Speak Out
“The Forum events at MDG present valuable and timely information to the med-tech community.
For example, ‘The Surgical Suite Responds to the New Business Model of Healthcare’ presented critical trends for healthcare providers in the struggle to combine quality care and cost reduction.
I gained multiple insights and usable information for our medical device/diagnostic strategy research clients on implementing cost-efficiencies in their medical devices.”
Maria Shepherd, President Data Decision Group, LLC
“MDG monthly meetings cover a diverse range of topics that expand the breadth and depth of my industry knowledge.
Industry trends become more clear, more quickly, and I have used specific knowledge points from meetings to make better decisions in my daily job.”
John O’Gara, Project Manager Hologic, Inc.
“The Driving Principle behind MDG is that progress and innovation are driven by collaboration, cooperation and an open, free exchange of knowledge and ideas between individuals from all levels, across different functions and many disciplines, including but not limited to basic sciences, engineering, clinical science, finance, investing, administration, academia and business.“ Peter Madras, M.D. President of MDG Boston
MDG Boston is differs from other similar medical-
focussed organizations in the area because of our
focus on the individual, not companies. The strength
of MDG Boston is the peer-to-peer communication and interaction by
professionals who are passionate about medical technology and life sciences.
It’s people who are excited about the advances that the industry brings to
improving the life of patients and the opportunities it offers for professional
contribution and growth.
MDG Boston is your single source for engaging in the Mass Bio-med and Bio-tech
communities. From fostering entrepreneurial thinking to promoting best practices
in enterprise environments to helping establish alliances with complementary
organizations, there’s truly something for everyone and anyone with a
passion for medical technology.
