In this episode of Medtech Matters, a podcast focused on the medical device manufacturing industry and the factors impacting it, we speak with Joe Mullings, chairman and CEO of The Mullings Group—a talent acquisition firm focused on medtech—and host of the web series TrueFuture. As someone who works with leading medtech manufacturers and travels the world to explore regions where new medtech is being developed, Mullings was able to provide an interesting viewpoint on what’s got him excited and how lessons learned from the pandemic could help the industry. Specifically, we pose the following questions to him.  
  

• Through your various ventures, you’re exposed to quite a bit of emerging medtech. What has you most excited and why?
• How are these new technologies impacting the types of people the medtech industry is hiring?
• Are you getting interest for medtech talent from non-traditional industry players? With the pandemic, we saw companies like GM and Tesla partnering with medical device firms to produce critical products. Are these same types of companies seeking to incorporate medtech into their products?
• In your fourth season of True Future, you visit Israel, which has been an emerging hub for medtech R&D for some time now. What interesting things did you find there?
• You’re also moderating a panel at ICI’s Global Digital Summit on the Virtualization of Care. What does that mean and how will it impact today’s healthcare space? 

 Listen to this episode and see what you think of Joe Mullings and his various roles. If you’d like to share thoughts, ask questions, or suggest a future participant for Medtech Matters, please reach out to me at [email protected].
