Gallucci’s keynote on March 31 will explore the challenges, leadership lessons and entrepreneurial drive behind building a thriving health care business. He will share insights from his professional journey, including his role as associate chief medical officer for Major League Soccer and his work as a sports medicine consultant to professional athletes in the NFL, NBA, NHL, and Major League Baseball. Gallucci will also discuss his commitment to New Jersey, along with the benefits and challenges of operating a business in the state.
“New Jersey has played a critical role in my professional journey, and I’m proud to build and grow a healthcare organization here,” he said. “I’m looking forward to sharing the lessons I’ve learned as an entrepreneur and health care leader, and to engaging with fellow business leaders about how we can continue to strengthen New Jersey’s business environment while delivering meaningful impact to the communities we serve.”
The two-day ReNew Jersey Business Summit & Expo is expected to draw more than 900 business leaders from across the state and will feature keynote addresses, timely panel discussions on New Jersey’s economic competitiveness, an all-day business expo, and extensive networking opportunities. More than 100 exhibitors will showcase products and services from across the Garden State, with a total of 50 speakers and 15 sessions focused on the state economy.
Two large networking receptions are scheduled: An evening cocktail reception on March 31 and a morning breakfast reception on April 1.
