Marina Izzo is the CEO of EBAMed, a Geneva-based Medtech startup dedicated to establishing a non-invasive cardiac radioablation approach as the new standard of care for patients with ventricular tachycardia (VT). She joined EBAMed in January 2021, bringing over 20 years of leadership experience in the international medical devices industry. Under her leadership, EBAMed has developed an innovative technology that combines real-time ultrasound tracking of cardiac motion with beam synchronization with respiratory and cardiac cycles. This approach enables precise irradiation of VT targets while minimizing radiation exposure to healthy myocardium and critical structures such as heart valves, coronary arteries, lungs, and stomach. In June 2023, she successfully closed a Series A funding round exceeding €14 million, which will support the completion of the company's first human clinical trial. Before joining EBAMed, Marina was the CEO of Cardionovum, a privately owned startup where she led the company to receive Chinese FDA market approval for two innovative drug-coated balloons. Previously, she served as Senior Director of Sales and Marketing at Symetis SA (now part of Boston Scientific), where she established the company as a significant player in the transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) market. Marina has also held several leadership roles with Medtronic in Europe and St. Jude Medical, including Marketing Director for the EMEA Atrial Fibrillation (AF) business. Marina Izzo holds a Master’s degree in Economics from Bocconi University in Milan.
