Medtech Incubator NXT Biomedical Shows Stan Rowe Is Great at Innovation, Bad at “Retirement”
Show Notes

After leading a long, distinguished and successful career in Medtech Innovation, Stan Rowe chose a familiar, if not unusual, spot to “retire” – he co-founded NXT Biomedical, an incubator backed by Deerfield Capital and Johnson & Johnson. Rowe previously led the unique Advanced Technologies Unit at Edwards Lifesciences Corp., the same company that earlier had acquired his start-up, Percutaneous Valve Technologies. In this podcast, Rowe walks us through a career that started in pharmaceuticals. He also shares his particular philosophy on how corporate R&D units should see the world.
