They don't want your name on a letterhead. They want someone who speaks product, regulation, and business. That's what this trains you to do.
The Problem
You have the clinical credibility. But healthtech companies won't hire you without these three things — and medical school never taught them.
Healthtech companies need physicians who speak product, AI, and business. Your residency didn't teach that. Without it, you may struggle to demonstrate your fit for industry roles.
Product management, AI strategy, and business fluency — taught by physician executives who made the transition themselves. Not theory. Applied.

Your CV lists publications and procedures. Hiring managers want to see what you've shipped. No portfolio = no interview.
Design and ship a digital health product in 8 weeks. Walk into any interview with proof you can execute — not just theorize.

Your clinical network doesn't overlap with healthtech. Cold applications go nowhere. You need warm introductions to the people who write offer letters.
Build relationships with faculty, peers and professionals across digital health while developing your portfolio and positioning.
