OrthoWorx works with the community, industry and academic partners to help the Warsaw, Ind., community take advantage of the high concentration of orthopedic device manufacturers in the area. OrthoWorx and the Orthopedics Capital Foundation were created in September 2009 with an initial grant from the Lilly Endowment to the Kosciusko County Community Foundation.
OrthoWorx also established a University-Industry Advisory Board to align orthopedic industry interests and needs with the research capabilities of the state’s colleges.
“It has been our privilege to work with our members and community stakeholders to advance an industry that provides great economic opportunity for the citizens of the region and also provides life-changing health benefits to patients around the world,” said Sheryl Conley, president and CEO of OrthoWorx.
