Cardiovascular Business is thrilled to unveil the Forty Under 40 Class of 2025.
We asked readers to nominate individuals who are already making a major impact on the world of cardiovascular health at a young age. We wanted to hear about your best, your brightest, your most radical thinkers; the people who are never satisfied by something being “good enough” or “how it’s always been done.”
Reviewing the nominees, it was clear that our readers really delivered. Wow, what a group! We landed on a fantastic group of 40 young cardiologists, researchers, executives, administrators, directors and entrepreneurs who are sure to be making a difference in the lives of patients for decades to come.
Cardiology is going through a moment of significant change right now. The world is in the middle of a cardiologist shortage, for instance, while device technologies and artificial intelligence evolve at a remarkable pace. Fortunately, the specialty’s future appears to be in excellent hands.
Congratulations to all of our winners. As someone who is already well into my forties, I am simply in awe of your hard work and dedication. Thank you for everything you do for the heart patients of today and tomorrow.
