The Top 25 Healthcare Technology Leaders of San Diego for 2022


The Healthcare Technology Report is pleased to announce The Top 25 Healthcare Technology Leaders of San Diego for 2022. San Diego often does not receive the same acclaim as other California locales, like San Francisco and Silicon Valley, for its tech industry. However, in 2021, Moove It ranked San Diego number 9 of the 85 best cities for healthtech in the world, when accounting for investment, corporate infrastructure, human capital, and sector expertise. And there is certainly no shortage of innovation coming out of the city, if this list is any indication. In specialties as wide ranging as pharmaceuticals, genomics, microscale robotics, and chemoproteomics, this year’s honorees and the companies they represent are revolutionizing the healthcare technology industry.

Some of the distinguished leaders on this year’s list include Eric Dube, President and CEO of Travere Therapeutics, which is advancing a pipeline of potential first-in-class medicines targeting rare diseases with significant unmet needs and oftentimes no approved treatment options. Meanwhile, Dr. Russell Nofsinger, Senior Director of Business Development of Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine, has led efforts to expand clinical access to rapid Whole Genome Sequencing (rWGS), developing a network of more than 80 healthcare systems providing access to genomically-informed care for some of their most fragile patients. And since President and CEO Anthony Shimkin took over leadership of AVACEN Medical less than a year ago, the company has launched three new products while moving up the Inc. 5,000 list 761 positions to number 1,480.

The awardees on this year’s list lead from a range of positions, from CEO to CSO, COO, Chief Research Officer, and SVP, but what they have in common is their experienced and effective leadership in the healthcare technology space, advancing products and treatments that are measurably improving the lives of patients around the world. Please join us in celebrating The Top 25 Healthcare Technology Leaders of San Diego for 2022.
