Vital Signs #75: 7th Annual OneMedForum - Crowdfunding
Scott Jordan, Founder - HealthiosXchange, the market-leading healthcare Crowdfunding portal http://healthiosxchange.com/, will be presenting at the OneMedForum conference in San Francisco on January 14th.
OneMedForum announced it has assembled two panels featuring early entrants in the emerging areas of crowdfunding and online investment banking in healthcare. Panelists will offer insights on their experiences thus far, along with their outlook on this new approach to funding. The sessions will be held on Monday, January 13th, and Tuesday, the 14th, during the 7th Annual OneMedForum at the Westin San Francisco Market Street.
“We’re excited to get insights from the leading Portals as well as those providing the infrastructure for this emerging area,” said Brett Johnson, CEO of OneMedPlace and conference organizer, adding, “The JOBS Act has dramatically transformed the rules by which finance will be conducted. Getting insight from the early players in this space will be interesting for both financiers and companies alike.”
Tuesday’s session will bring together a panel of early entrants in the area of dedicated healthcare crowdfunding portals in the United States, including founders and CEOs of HealthiosXchange, Poliwogg, Healthfundr, and Venture Health. “I had to pick four pioneering firms in the U.S. that have thrown their hat into the ring, this would be the group,” said Alex Fair, who runs Medstartr, a leading health rewards crowdfunding site and plans to roll out Medfundr in early 2014.
