New Society Connecting Medical Entrepreneurs – Part 1

The MTPConnect Podcast

Many well-known Australian medical innovations have been developed by visionary clinicians – doctors, nurses and allied health professionals – including the cochlear implant and spray on skin.
In part 1 of this double episode, we explore medical entrepreneurship in Australia with Dr Brandon Carp, a Melbourne-based doctor who changed up his medical career to pursue his entrepreneurial business ideas in healthcare.
Brandon has been involved in the Australian Clinical Entrepreneur Program (AUSCEP) established by MTPConnect’s REDI initiative. He is also behind the recently launched Australian Society for Medical Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Australia’s first home for clinicians wishing to make an impact at scale in healthcare.
He joins host Caroline Duell to discuss his journey to clinical entrepreneurship, the rise of the portfolio career, and why we need to do more to tap into the talent in our medical and healthcare system to strengthen Australia’s innovation capabilities.
