One of the ways StarFish Medical empowers medtech innovation is with Medical Device Playbook, an annual conference to inspire entrepreneurial medical device companies. MDPlaybook features expert medtech speakers from all over North America at events in Toronto and Vancouver. The most popular segments often feature successful serial medtech entrepreneurs sharing their stories and lessons learned.

We created Medtech Adventures to share the message of these medtech entrepreneurs with a broader audience. In this series, StarFish Medical Founder and CEO, Scott Phillips, interviews entrepreneurs about their journey, entrepreneurial successes and lessons learned. The interviews run 30-45 minutes and are taped wherever Scott can catch up with the busy entrepreneurs.
