Becoming your best version of a healthcare leader

...optimizing Medvale connections and resources

Akron BBQ | Sep 18-20

this year’s best opportunity to engage

Attendees at our past in-person events will tell you of rich connections that so accelerated their Medvale benefits for professional and personal support through challenging times. That is why so many will be coming to Akron in September (see Who’s Coming).


Find out yourself how engaged Medvalistas are leveraging their membership benefits to advance their personal and professional growth. How could you better and more efficiently learn directly from Medvale’s leadership, Town Council and Co-op the latest thinking on Medvale’s direction and how you could help. And…get yourself known within your little town.


Our own “non-conference” leverages our unique ability to deliver intimate networking with the best health delivery minds.


Enjoy a BBQ graciouly hosted by Dr. Markarian at his home. Golfers will bond with other Medvalista golfers on an only-in-Medvale day at an exclusive private course.


Come early, stay late. While the core event will be 5p Wednesday through Thursday night, many are coming in early Wednesday and staying through Friday for pre-arranged meetings with Medvalista friends or trainings and consults with Tiago and Maria.

Join your fellow Medvalistas who will return from Akron armed with –

invitations to sell their expertise through our new think tank offerings

knowing what four of our citizens are excelling at moving each of the quaduple dials

understanding the trends, threats and opportunities in private equity and venture capital

personalized training from Maria on how Connie, our new know-it-all robot, can point out which Medvale resources can help

knowing how they can benefit from our new coaching offerings

inspirations and connections from fascinating panel discussions

a personal relationship with Tiago for when his help is needed

knowing our Town Council members and what they are planning

Imagine

meeting a new best friend at Dr. Markarian’s social hour and then sitting together at dinner that night


being asked to be a Dolphin at the next Dolphin Tank


meeting a Medvalista who is has the perfect solution for your biggest headache


going home with five new, good friends all specializing in health delivery leadership

Optimize your Medvale connections and resources. There is no better way for our little town to help you become YOUR best version of a healthcare leader.

…is where we’ll kick things off on Wednesday evening. Dr. Markarian will have been cooking his famous brisket for us for two days.

highlights from our latest in-person Event

In June, Medvalistas from the Boise area had a special gathering at Dave Self's house.

It was a day to exchange experiences, catch up on the challenges each of us is facing, and take networking to the next level with a glass of wine in hand.
