Why ConsumerMed? Because, to a large degree, healthcare is a miserable arena for everyone involved.
How would things be different if the individual health consumer were driving the decisions and priorities?

NINA KJELLSON
CO-CHAIR
General Partner

healthcare is changing fast and individuals are facing ever more complicated questions around cost, products, services and their own health behaviors… I wanted to amplify the conversation about how to help consumers to be their healthiest selves and to explore beyond the boundaries of the traditional healthcare system to find new, disruptive ideas

KEVIN APPELBAUM

Tria Beauty, Inc

ALBERT CHA
Managing Partner
Vivo Ventures
I was excited about the opportunity to bring consumers the knowledge to make their own health care decisions, and enabling people to benefit by directing their own health care.

CAMILLE SAMUELS
Affiliated Director
Versant Ventures
I became involved with the CM summit [organization] because I believe that the empowerment of the healthy consumer is an inexorable trend – and a really good thing to boot.

PAULO SIMAS
CMO, Managing Partner
W2O Group
Because what got us here is not going to get us there.
It’s not enough to simply say we are going to survive the disruption, we must be active participants in the change to truly impact lives, ours and for those around us.

JOON YUN
President
Palo Alto Investors
It is a wonderful leadership team to work with and a very important topic that touches all of our lives.
