Gary Stevenson | MNVC & HP Capital

Building the future of Ortho for over 20+ years at the annual MNVC. Gary Stevenson shares the story behind launching the Musculoskeletal New Ventures Conference (MNVC) over 20 years ago in Memphis—a platform designed to bring together surgeon-entrepreneurs, MedTech investors, and startups in the ortho space. Here’s what we learned from Gary: 1. With orthopedic giants such as @Stryker, @SNN and @Medtronic Spine, Memphis became the perfect ecosystem for orthopedic innovation. MNVC helped fuel that by connecting capital with clinical insight 2. In an increasingly digital world, Gary emphasizes the enduring value of face-to-face deal-making, clinical validation, and peer exchange that MNVC enables—especially for early-stage startups needing visibility and feedback. 3. The conference has become a launchpad for surgeon-led startups, offering a rare stage where real-world clinical problems meet venture capital, and great ideas are accelerated.
