Founding Story
As healthcare professionals and roommates, our daily conversations naturally gravitated towards industry topics and our professional experiences. We quickly realized the immense value of exchanging knowledge, engaging in meaningful discussions, and essentially creating our own small professional community.
We also recognized that career development often focuses on formal conversations with superiors or hard skill-building, the aspect that's frequently overlooked in one’s early career is investing in a robust professional network.
These realizations inspired genHC. Created on our apartment couch, we envisioned transforming our two-person community into a network and resource for young professionals in the healthcare industry.
genHC is more than just a network; it's a movement. We recognize that operating in silos constrains our potential to effect change. As the future leaders of healthcare, we are committed to empowering individuals to make informed decisions, foster collaborations across the industry, and actively shape the trajectory of our healthcare system. Together, we are the next generation of healthcare leaders, and genHC is our platform for collective growth and impact.
We are passionate about the healthcare industry and building a community of leaders.
