DeviceTalks Live: Being a woman in the corner office of medtech

There's an old saying that Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did but she did it backwards and in high heels. For Nancy Briefs, Deborah DiSanzo and Martha Shadan, it's also a challenge they know well. These CEOs and medtech veterans have made the journey from the ranks of the medtech industry to the corner office, making them, sadly, a rarity in this industry where just 1 out of 7 women in medicine hold senior executive positions. In this panel, recorded live at our DeviceTalks Boston event features remarks from DiSanzo, IBM Watson General Manager, Ms. Briefs, CEO, InfoBionic and Ms. Shadan, CEO, Rotation Medical.
