Show Notes

In this episode, Host Tom Salemi interviews Steve Mapa, a former MedTech leader who is now president and executive director of MedTechVets.

In this conversation, we learn how Mapa found a path to the medical device industry a decade after leaving the army. He explains how MedTech fills the need to serve so many veterans still hold onto, and how MedTechVets is helping active service members and veterans transition into the MedTech industry.
