Dallas SWE kicked off our first-ever Industry Swap Event, highlighting the medical device/biomedical Industry and it was a great start to the series! Each Swap event will step into a different industry, giving people curious about it a chance to hear directly from those working in it, and giving those already in the field a chance to grow their careers and meet new people.
We opened with three professionals from the industry, who shared their career journeys: how they got into the industry, the twists along the way, and what the work looks like day to day. Then we opened the floor, and the audience brought thoughtful questions that kept the conversation going. The evening wrapped up with speed-dating-style networking, so everyone could meet new people and keep the conversations going one-on-one.
Thank you to Ella Deane, Cyonna Holmes, PhD, and Shelley Stracener for sharing your stories and insights with passion and honesty. Thank you also to the attendees who came curious and excited to learn more about the medical device industry.
Stay tuned for our next Swap Night where we’ll explore a new industry!
