For more than 15 years, the partners of DigiVid360 have worked with healthcare clients including medical device companies, medical imaging, and women’s health. Throughout this time, we’ve noticed one challenge that seems inherent to all of these companies… they struggle to compete.

“Do you prefer boxers or briefs?”
