In this episode of Medsider Radio, we had a riveting chat with David Hochman, founder and CEO of Orchestra BioMed, a company accelerating high-impact technologies through risk-reward-sharing partnerships with leading medical device companies.

David has over two decades of experience in healthcare entrepreneurship, venture capital, and investment banking. He has a history of leading successful medical startups, including Orchestra Medical Ventures and Accelerated Technologies. As Chairman of Motus GI and former board member of Corbus Pharmaceuticals and PROLOR Biotech, David has been instrumental in advancing medical technologies, contributing to significant mergers & acquisitions, and many fundraising successes.

In this interview he talks about driving successful partnerships, operational excellence in R&D, and the importance of a long-term strategy for sustainable industry innovation through aligned incentives.
