About Device Nation
Learn the history of Device Nation! How it all began, and where it is going...
How It All Began
In 2020, as COVID-19 shut down hospitals and halted medical device businesses, Kevin Brown launched the Device Nation Podcast to support and connect reps.
Armed with a $100 Zoom recorder, he aired his first episode on February 13, 2020, featuring Dr. Vinod Dasa. The show quickly united reps, surgeons, and industry professionals across operative orthopedics.
The Podcast Grows
As hospitals reopened, the podcast filled a void—offering uplifting industry news when it was scarce. Companies soon approached Kevin to amplify their messaging. Through authentic storytelling and strong social media, Device Nation integrates brand messages organically, never feeling sales-driven.
Kevin leverages 30+ years of industry experience with creative LinkedIn content, podcast shorts, surgeon interviews, live booth events, and more.
Kevin's History
Kevin spent 25 years at Zimmer running a multi-million dollar territory, awarded 7 Presidents Club Awards, and many other sales awards before founding an independent distributorship with his wife Teri, representing 20+ companies. He now serves as Business Development Manager at Crosslink Life Sciences while keeping Device Nation independent and thriving.
