Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#101 When Great Technology Is Not Enough with Shai Policker: Why most MedTech Startups Still Fail, Venture Studios vs VC and the Israeli Edge
Q: How should a company evaluate whether there is actually a buyer for their product?
Don't rely on physician enthusiasm alone; confirm that the payer and clinical adoption drivers align with real purchasing power and reimbursement pathways to ensure sustainable adoption.
#101 When Great Technology Is Not Enough with Shai Policker: Why most MedTech Startups Still Fail, Venture Studios vs VC and the Israeli Edge
Q: So following on from that, what would you say are some of the most common reasons that MedTech startups fail?
The main reasons include misalignment with the complex, multi-stakeholder decision process in healthcare, lack of a solid reimbursement strategy, and running out of funding due to a long, costly path to market.
#99 Stop Calling It AI: Machine Learning, LLMs and the Truth About Healthcare Automation with Manish Patel
Q: What is the current state of AI in healthcare and where should we be cautious?
AI should be used as an augmenting tool with proper regulation and validation, not as a replacement for clinicians; the most value is in administrative and workflow improvements rather than pure diagnostics, with careful testing.
#96 Decentralising Healthcare: Hospital Buying, AI as Augmented Intelligence and Clinical Adoption with Dr. Amel Havkic
Q: How did the StarMap framework come about?
StarMap was developed from analysing successful and unsuccessful MedTech tools I worked with, integrating my MBA research.
#96 Decentralising Healthcare: Hospital Buying, AI as Augmented Intelligence and Clinical Adoption with Dr. Amel Havkic
Q: If there's one thing you could change in healthcare now, what would it be?
I wish healthcare would focus more on helping patients rather than being driven by economic control.
