A huge thank you to our panelists, Chris Schultz, Amanda Puls, and Justin Freed, and our moderator Lisa Risser, CPA, MBA, FACHE, FHFMA for their expertise in this area! During the session, they shared actionable strategies their organizations have used to reduce OR supply costs while maintaining high-quality care.

We’re thrilled to highlight one of DOCSI’s founders, Connor Valenti, for his recent participation as a judge in Macalester College’s annual Macathon innovation event. Macathon is an exciting 24-hour competition where student teams channel their creativity and problem-solving skills to invent original products or services that address real-world challenges. It’s an incredible opportunity for students to apply their education in innovative and impactful ways. As a proud Macalester alum, Connor was excited to return to his roots and help foster the next generation of entrepreneurs. One of those students happened to be Aahanaa Tibrewal, who spent her summer as a Software Engineering Intern for DOCSI! Connor's experience as a founder provided unique insights into the entrepreneurial journey and the value of bringing innovative ideas to life. Kudos to all the students who participated in this fantastic event!
