The medical supply chain from manufacturer to consumer has gotten completely out of control. Luka Yancopoulos and his co-founders started Grapevine to become the Amazon of health care supply products, and they have effectively removed the middle men distributors in the process. Their venture has saved producers and end-users aggregately millions of dollars in costs on simple products like PPE and supplies for their offices. These essential products are needed to treat patients, conduct surgeries, and routine visits. Luka explains that his grander vision for this company, after winning multiple grants, awards, and seed money, is to leave the world in a better place than he found it and strive to make the process much easier to acquire this necessary equipment. His mother is a physician, and his father a data scientist, so he saw the need for the change with his own eyes. You'll be impressed with his outlook on the medical world and the way he sought to disupt a billion dollar industry, one order at a time.
