About the Healthcare Leadership Series
The Healthcare Leadership Series is a series of roundtable discussions that bring together one healthcare industry leader and a small group of current students to discuss industry trends, challenges, and opportunities within the leader’s industry area of expertise. The event series is designed to be small and personal to allow students to engage in casual dialogue and a robust Q&A session, as well as exchange ideas, get to know one another, and gain insights, providing them with unprecedented access to an industry leader. The event series is sponsored and supported by Robert Yu ’03, President and CEO of Yuyu Pharma, and member of the Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Management Advisory Board.
