Destination Medical Center (DMC)

For more than 150 years, Rochester, MN has been the home of Mayo Clinic. An ambitious family of doctors and an order of Catholic sisters, created what has become the #1 hospital in the world. With a singular focus on the needs of the patient, Mayo Clinic established a vision that drives the enterprise today. Mayo Clinic continues to be the standard bearer for healthcare innovation in solving medicine’s most serious and complex problems.

By tapping into the unmatched talent of Minnesota’s “Medical Alley” – more than 15,000 health tech companies and their 500,000 employees – the DMC will deliver on their transformative goal. Within 90 minutes of the Mayo Clinic campus you will find the headquarters of Medtronic (the world’s largest medical device manufacturer), UnitedHealth Group (the largest health insurance provider in the U.S.), and Optum (the world’s largest digital health firm).

The Medical Alley ecosystem is unmatched in providing the expertise to navigate complicated regulatory, reimbursement, design and manufacturing challenges in bringing innovations to market.
