Ann Arbor SPARK CEO Podcasts: Conversations on Economic Opportunity capture the flavor of my one-on-one conversations with over one hundred key economic leaders in the region, including private sector CEOs, elected and appointed public sector leaders, and the executive leadership of key non-profit and academic institutions. The podcast series is designed to not only highlight that expertise, but also make it available to others who could benefit from the wisdom those business leaders can share.

Mark Sutter is the president and CEO of Terumo Cardiovascular Systems Corporation, a global leader of products for the cardiac and vascular surgery marketplace. Mark has more 28 years experience within the healthcare industry. Prior to Terumo, Mark also held executive management, product development, and sales and marketing positions at Pall Corporation, Gelman Sciences, and Baxter Healthcare.

In my conversation with Mark Sutter, we discuss Terumo's quality policy, and how the company "helps save 1,000 lives a day". Mark also talks about the assets that make Ann Arbor an ideal location for a global headquarters, which include access to talent and quality of life.
