info_outlineOn this episode of the Dental Up Podcast, we welcome to the podcast the CEO of Vista Apex Materials, Scott Lamerand! After graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Lacrosse, Scott joined Bisco as a research chemist. At the time, Bisco was a small dental material’s company leading the market in dental adhesives, where he not only was exposed to the science behind restorative dental materials but also the commercialization process and a look into the dental world from the eyes of KOL’s. Afterwards, he decided to round out his educational background by earning my MBA at Kellogg-Northwestern University. The diverse experiences Bisco provided allowed him to contribute to future companies in many ways. After a few years, he found himself utilizing his business and product development skills in a market manager role with P&L responsibility for $120 million. Things were going well, then the phone rang and Dr. John Kanca asked if he would be interested in starting a company making adhesives. That was the day Apex was born.
