Aneel chats with Richard Linder, Chairman and CEO of Xenter. Linder is a serial bioscience entrepreneur and the founder and chairman emeritus of BioUtah, Utah’s independent life science association. He is the inventor of many medical devices in interventional cardiology, interventional radiology, neuro-interventional radiology, and orthopedic surgery. He holds more than 100 patents and patent applications in the U.S., and many more international patents. Based on his personal experience, Linder is building Xenter from the patient’s perspective. Within a very short period, Linder launched company divisions in three areas: Xenter Hospital Technologies, Xenter Digital Health, and Xenter. For financial backing, Linder secured private investors with a long-term view of health care rather than venture capital. Linder is convinced that data is “everything” and “the future,” especially as physical and artificial intelligence become intertwined. “We have to look at new ways to develop sensors and get things done,” Linder asserts. Linder expects to add legendary health care leaders to his team later this year and to submit a new breed of medical devices for approval in 2022. This episode is sponsored by Xenter, www.xenterMD.com
