Inside DeviceTalks Boston: Elevating Imaging Innovation with POC
In this exciting episode of Focus on Precision, host Justin Starbird is joined by Tom Salemi, Editorial Director of DeviceTalks, and Clay Schwabe, Vice President of Business Development at Precision Optics (POC), for an in-depth conversation about the future of medical imaging, innovation in device development, and what to expect at this year’s DeviceTalks Boston.
Tom shares the inside story of how DeviceTalks has evolved into a must-attend event for medtech professionals, offering tracks focused on surgical robotics, neuromodulation, imaging, and AI. He highlights the importance of real-world connection, storytelling, and how bringing the right people together can spark incredible industry innovation.
Clay gives listeners a preview of POC’s exciting plans for DeviceTalks Boston, where they’ll showcase their Unity Imaging Platforms — featuring ultra-compact, high-clarity scopes designed for medical device integration. He shares some fun (and slightly gross!) demonstrations that will get people talking — including using the scopes to reveal just how dirty a smartphone port can get. More importantly, Clay explains how POC’s cutting-edge imaging technology is helping to advance patient safety and surgical precision by making high-quality imaging accessible for in-office and ASC procedures.
Together, Tom and Clay reflect on the deeper purpose behind what they do: improving lives, empowering physicians, and fueling the future of medtech innovation. They discuss the energy that comes from seeing technologies move from concept to clinical use, and how critical partnerships and community-building — like those fostered at DeviceTalks — are to that success.
