Mind Grove, a leading provider of skills-based competency training for the MedTech industry, today announced the appointment of Mark Zides to its Board of Directors.

Mind Grove, the MedTech industry’s first comprehensive skills-based training platform, announced the success of its April 22 webinar, “The Product Launch Blueprint: Foundations for MedTech Commercial Success.” The live session brought together MedTech marketing and executive leaders for a high-impact discussion on the strategic decisions that determine whether product launches succeed—or stall.

Mind Grove is thrilled to announce that its MedTech Essentials Suite of educational courses is now available. Founded by clinical affairs veteran Cindy Grabowski in 2024, Mind Grove strives to create an educational curriculum that closes the gaps in the processes from development to commercialization of medical devices.

Mind Grove hosted a pivotal webinar on February 25, 2026 featuring “The Acquisition Shift: Why Large MedTech Companies Want Your Revenue, Not Your R&D Risk,” presented by industry veteran Krystal Santiago and Mind Grove founder Cindy Grabowski, and drew strong engagement from MedTech professionals navigating the changing landscape of startup acquisitions.

In the December 4th episode of the Achieve Podcast, Cindy Grabowski sits down with host Jessie Warner and explores how she’s building a new pathway into high paying careers in medtech.

Mind Grove hosted a live panel discussion led by guest speaker Kimberly Norton, CEO of JDL Access, LLC, alongside panelists Jolayne Devers, Partner at JD Lymon, and Carla Monacelli, Co-founder of JD Lymon. The session brought together MedTech professionals focused on reimbursement strategy, payer engagement, and commercial launch readiness.

Mind Grove, the MedTech training platform dedicated to equipping medical device professionals with practical, skills-based learning, announces the next session in its popular Mind Grove Insights webinar series.

The first webinar in the “Mind Grove Insights” series, “The New Paradigm of Clinical Trial Management: Contemporary Strategies for Execution Excellence” will be held on June 11, 2025. This event will feature Pam Simons, VP Clinical Affairs and architect of AtriCure’s LeAAPs Clinical Trial. In this session you’ll gain exclusive insights into cutting-edge approaches that balance scientific rigor with commercial reality.

Cindy Grabowski has worked for nine medical device companies – but it took four of them before she finally felt well-rounded in her career. Why? Because the most impactful learning didn’t come from textbooks or degrees. It came from real-world experience. From mentors. From being shown how the work actually gets done.

In this video, Cindy shares the lightbulb moment behind Mind Grove: realizing that she, and nearly everyone she worked with, had to piece together critical skills over years, simply because no training existed to teach them upfront.

In this short video, you’ll learn what Mind Grove’s unique approach is, offering two things that nobody else does today: so learners don’t just understand their role, they understand how to work across departments from day one, and how to be working with them toward success.

Founder Cindy Grabowski walks through the structure of Mind Grove’s carefully constructed training: intro modules, six core career pathways, and three tiers of progression designed to equip learners and teams with the tools they need to actually succeed in today’s MedTech landscape.

“You’re only going to get one chance to spend a dollar”.

That’s the reality facing today’s MedTech startups, and the companies investing in them. The industry has changed. Innovation alone isn’t enough. What used to be a 3-year sprint to acquisition is now a long, complex marathon of regulatory approval, reimbursement strategy, and proven market traction.
