Upcoming Events

Principled Decision-Making
Interview and Reception
Wednesday, March 29, 4-6:00pm
Tyler Shultz’s gutsy decision to blow the whistle on Theranos ten years ago had major consequences for the company and its founders. It also resulted in increased scrutiny of the medtech startup space and exacted a huge personal cost.
What does Tyler believe today given the perspective of time? Was doing the right thing worth it? What is next for him as a founder? Please join us for one-on-one conversation with Fogarty Innovation CEO Andrew Cleeland on Principled Decision-Making.
This is a hybrid event. Email Fogarty Education to inquire about in-person or zoom attendance.
