We are dedicated to converting Mayo ideas, ingenuity and expertise into
health care products and services which are consistent with Mayo
Clinic's image and reputation and which generate significant revenue to
support Mayo Clinic's mission.
The office is a part of Mayo Medical Ventures (MMV), which is a division of Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research. MMV was started in 1986 as a response to ever-tightening reimbursement for patient care services. MMV's charge is to generate new sources of revenue to support Mayo's clinical practice, medical education and medical research activities. MMV has explored numerous business opportunities and developed a strategy focusing on four broad areas:
Providing health information to consumers worldwide
Commercializing medical technology
Operating outpatient pharmacies and a medical supply store
Serving as Mayo's business development unit to analyze and explore new ventures
