This panel will explore how leaders make critical portfolio decisions, including where to invest, what to divest, and when transformative actions can unlock value. The discussion will examine the realities of executing major change, from separation and integration challenges to talent retention and building successful independent organizations. Panelists will also discuss how M&amp;A priorities evolve through periods of transformation, the role of portfolio optimization in creating more focused businesses, and where the next wave of consolidation and growth opportunities may emerge across MedTech.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Featured Speakers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Pete Cataldo (<\/strong><strong>Moderator)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Managing Director, Head of Medtech Investment Banking, Truist<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Pete&nbsp;Arduini<\/strong><br>President and CEO, GE HealthCare<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Rachel Ellingson<\/strong><br>Chief Strategy &amp; Corporate Development Officer, Solventum<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ivan Tornos<\/strong><br>Chairman, President and CEO, Zimmer Biomet<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/2632886.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net\/hub\/2632886\/hubfs\/TEMPLATE%202%20%E2%80%94%20Emailweb%20Graphic%20(8).png?upscale=true&amp;width=1200&amp;upscale=true&amp;name=TEMPLATE%202%20%E2%80%94%20Emailweb%20Graphic%20(8).png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Redefining Women&#8217;s Health: Opportunities for Investment and Innovation in Medtech&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Sponsored by PwC<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Women&#8217;s health is gaining momentum as a targeted investment opportunity in medtech. Half of the world&#8217;s patients are female, yet products, pipelines, and clinical strategies have not consistently reflected that reality. As innovation and capital begin to shift, the question is where and how medtech can create real, scalable value. This CEO panel will focus on execution. Leaders from large strategics, scaled innovators, and private equity will share where they are placing bets across areas such as minimally invasive gynecologic procedures, breast and oncology diagnostics, pelvic health, and emerging segments like menopause and cardiovascular conditions in women. The discussion will explore how device innovation is evolving-from anatomy-specific design to AI-enabled diagnostics and at-home testing-and what it takes to move beyond point solutions into platforms that drive adoption, reimbursement, and sustained growth. Attendees will gain insight into: &#8211; Where medtech is creating value in women&#8217;s health today and where the opportunities are &#8211; How leading companies are prioritizing women&#8217;s health within broader portfolio and R&amp;D strategies &#8211; The types of device and diagnostic innovations gaining traction with providers, payers, and patients &#8211; How private equity is shaping investment, M&amp;A, and scale in the category.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Featured Speakers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Claire Love (Moderator)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Partner, PwC<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Essex Mitchell<\/strong><br>Chief Operating Officer, Hologic<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Tobias Nordblom<\/strong><br>Managing Director, Astorg<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Holly Sheffield<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">President, CooperSurgical<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/2632886.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net\/hub\/2632886\/hubfs\/TEMPLATE%202%20%E2%80%94%20Emailweb%20Graphic%20(10).png?upscale=true&amp;width=1200&amp;upscale=true&amp;name=TEMPLATE%202%20%E2%80%94%20Emailweb%20Graphic%20(10).png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">The Big Tech Question: Partner, Build, or Compete?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Sponsored by L.E.K.
