BioHealth Innovation CEO Richard Bendis has always loved the health care industry. His winding career — which has taken him from Kansas City to Philadelphia and now to Washington, D.C. — could always be tied back to that industry no matter what role he held.
That's why he feels so passionately about finding great talent and creating opportunities in the DMV to keep entrepreneurs here. In 2015, BioHealth Innovation, along with a few partner companies, launched their five-month healthtech incubator in Rockville, Md. Bendis isn't too concerned about the future of the biohealth field in the DMV, but he does hope that one day more serial entrepreneurs will stay in the District.
