The State of the Deal: The Financial Climate for Orthopedic Innovation

This episode explores how venture capital and investment strategies are evolving in today’s MedTech landscape.

Moderator Gregg Griner (Orrick) leads the discussion with two physician-investors who are helping shape the future of healthcare technology:

  • Dr. Omair Khan (ARTIS Ventures) shares insights on the current funding environment, what venture firms are prioritizing in orthopedic innovation, and why some AI-driven tools are entering a period of market recalibration.
  • Dr. Andrew Parambath (Pear VC) brings a clinical lens to the conversation, offering practical guidance on selecting pilot partners, mapping out reimbursement pathways early, and designing companies that can withstand market turbulence.

Together, the panel offers a clear and realistic view of what it takes to build and fund successful orthopedic ventures in 2025.

This session is perfect for anyone working at the intersection of technology, care delivery, and investment.
