Dinner with Wei Deng, CEO of Clipboard Health
Join us for dinner with Wei Deng, founder and CEO of Clipboard Health — the marketplace connecting healthcare facilities with nurses and medical professionals across the U.S. Wei has raised over $90M from Sequoia, YC, and Initialized Capital, but the real story is what it took to get there: she pivoted the business model six to eight times before landing on what Clipboard Health is today. From income-share agreements for nursing students to job boards sold to staffing agencies, Wei iterated relentlessly until she found product-market fit in a direct two-sided marketplace that now operates in dozens of cities nationwide.
This is a 10-person dinner in San Francisco hosted by The Yale Table. Come ready to dig into the messy middle of building a companym what it's like to change direction that many times, how to know when to pivot vs. when to push through, scaling operations in healthcare, and leading a high-growth startup as a female immigrant founder in a tough sector. Real questions, real answers, good food.
Selected participants will be asked to contribute a fee covering part of the dinner expenses.
