A community helping the next generation of talent enter digital health.

About Us

Digital health is expanding and changing the world.  There is a need for more talent, however it can be difficult for new talent to enter the industry.  

We are a community of students and professionals connecting top MBA and MD students with experienced digital health professionals through a personal and efficient forum.

Our community revolves around “Ask Me Anything” events where students ask questions about digital health, seek career advice, and make connections with experienced professionals in the space. 

You can view recordings from prior events via the video library below.
