About this Event
Ro.Codes: Building Products in HealthTech
Building innovative user experiences in highly regulated industries
While Zuck's motto move fast & break things became playbook advice for every growing startup, does this adage apply to healthcare technology startups? What are the constraints & opportunities of innovating in the highly regulated healthcare industry where patient safety is paramount?

In our inaugural Ro.codes panel, we'll chat with Product leaders from leading healthcare technology companies in NYC to discuss the challenges & opportunities around innovating in healthcare technology. We'll ask questions such as: How can you quickly launch products that help bridge the gap for unmet needs while keeping patient safety at the forefront of planning? What are the gaps that currently exist in the healthcare tech landscape? How do you balance the tension between the need for rapid growth & the careful consideration required in a healthcare company?

Join us on Thursday, February 6th at 6:30pm for an engaging panel moderated by Danika Cleary Laszuk, GM of Betaworks Camp (formerly with Jawbone & Apple), as she sits down with:

Elizabeth Burstein, Head of Product at Maven (formerly with Zocdoc, Blue Apron, & LinkedIn)
Michele Gregory, Product leader at Capital One & former Manager of Web Development at WebMD with over 17 years of experience in the tech sector
Jess Prager, VP of Product at Ro (formerly with ClassPass & Warby Parker)
