Northeast Ohio – the Medical Capital

Find out how the Northeast Ohio, the Medical Capital, is improving lives everywhere – at The City Club on September 16th

Northeast Ohio is indeed impacting and improving lives literally everywhere through the innovations and efforts of the region’s people, companies and institutions in the medical industry. A small group of healthcare professionals and communicators have been working diligently to craft a platform to communicate our contributions and strengthen our reputation in the medical industry, and to better emphasize what we have to offer globally, domestically and in our own backyard. We are proud to be a member of this effort from the start, and look forward to attending an important kick off event on Thursday, September 16th, at The City Club in downtown Cleveland.

A number of leaders in our area will be there to discuss the collective strengths of Northeast Ohio – how this will drive our future economic growth and solidify our region’s place as a medical capital in the global healthcare landscape.

The panel of experts will include:
· Dan Moulthrop  (Moderator) - Curator of Conversation, The Civic Commons
· Chris Coburn - Executive Director, Cleveland Clinic Innovations
· Dr. Jay Alan Gershen –  President, NEOUCOM
· India Peirce Lee - Program Director for Neighborhoods, Housing & Community Development,
The Cleveland Foundation
· Ken Walker – Program Manager for Market Diversification , MAGNET

It’s imperative now that, as a region, we effectively communicate and reiterate the wealth of knowledge, innovation and expertise we possess within the institutions and organizations that reside right here in Northeast Ohio, so that we can complement the aggressive work that is being done to bring additional funding, entrepreneurs and established organizations to this region.
