Guys - I'm leaving the MedAssets meeting now. Vendor exhibits were 9am-1pm CST. I walked around the show and saw Titan was here. I reached out to Honey for some direction on where to steer my questions.

1. Paige & John Hargrove both attended. They were in a no frills booth. Just a laptop playing new surgical procedures.
2. I didn't know Paige used to work for Intuitive, news to me today.
3. As Honey said, both Hargroves are tight lipped. I got nowhere fast.
4. FYI to those who don't know, MedAssets is a GPO that hospitals use to secure better pricing. This show was an invite only show where products are brought here to generate hype in the MedAssets community to take to their hospitals on their contracts. John said he was begged to come to this. This is their first coming out show.
5. He admitted he was hammered all day with questions he cannot answer. He and Paige both respectfully declined to get into any time/money information. They basically we're just there to show the video and go over their PPT that has analyzed the market needs and generate that buzz.
6. Hargrove talked to me like he was there with his child who has finally grown up and is ready to be seen as a man - SPORT is real and it works.
7. He admitted that he understands investors are unhappy with the ebb and flow of the PPS, but reiterated that we are all going to be smiling soon enough. He doesn't want to submit a rushed gen 1 robot to the market. They are taking advantage of the position of still taking market feedback.
