On June 26, 2020, we hosted a virtual conversation with A.T. Gimbel, Partner at Atlanta Ventures, and Lucie Ide, MD, PhD, a healthcare innovator and founder of Rimidi. The two talked about Lucie’s startup experiences, healthcare experiences, and the future of healthcare post COVID-19.
This need for Virtual events didn’t stop Atlanta’s bright minds from hopping online and making connections. These events are part of an ongoing series of talks about Healthcare in Atlanta, with the goal to make Atlanta the premier place to start and grow a HealthIT business.
Lucie first shared a little about her background and why she decided to get into healthcare. This included the decision to join a startup vs. practicing medicine. She then dove right into Rimidi — how she came up with the idea, some of the biggest challenges growing, and about achieving Product-Market-Fit. A.T. and she also talked about the current state of business and where they are headed.
The conversation included lots of thoughts around what the world will look like after COVID-19 and how Rimidi has evolved with the new COVID-19 landscape.
