Utah chapter

The Utah SoPE chapter began meeting in 2016. Our members include an eclectic group of physicians, professors, medical device experts, patent attorneys, angel investors and other professionals who are committed to improving healthcare. We hold quarterly meetings at the Church and State Business Incubator (370 S 300 E in SLC). We would love to have you join us for meetings and on our LinkedIn page. If you would like to speak at a future event or if you have any questions or suggestions, email John Dayton at drdayton@gmail.com.
