RHArlen is a relentless leader and driving force for entrepreneurism in the United States and Colorado. I have been working directly with him on several projects and he exemplifies what it takes to make change happen. I encourage anyone interested in biomedical entrepreneurism to be part of SoPE and support Arlen't efforts. By doing so you will be part of the necessary effort to transform and reform our healthcare system.

DNAs a Doctor turned full time Entrepreneur, I found myself floating about an unfamiliar world with little in the way of advice or contacts. I was totally blown over by just how much Dr Meyers and SOPE helped me out - especially considering that I am from Sri Lanka, a country on the opposite side of the globe ! If you are a Doctor-Entrepreneur or considering a career in that direction, I wholeheartedly recommend that you speak to Dr Meyers and become a member of SOPE. In fact, I hope to introduce a few other like minded colleagues of mine very soon !
