Founded in 2000, Synecor, LLC is a privately held, business accelerator focused on creating highly proprietary, disruptive technologies in the largest medical device and combination drug/device markets. Synecor evolved from the confluence of several synergistic strategic relationships, initially in the field of interventional cardiology, but has expanded its field to include all medical specialties such as obesity, spine therapeutics, and more. Synecor was founded by Dr. Richard Stack after two decades of collaboration with leading cardiologists, clinician-inventors, and scientists from across the nation and as an outgrowth of close working relationships among corporate leaders in the medical device industry, and experts at Duke University. Mr. William Starling, a well-known Silicon Valley medical device entrepreneur/executive with a successful 27-year career in the high technology cardiovascular device industry, partnered with Dr. Stack to co-manage Synecor and form strategic relationships with leading venture capital partnerships (Delphi Ventures and Frazier & Company) and a leading investment bank (Deutsche Banc Alex. Brown). The firm has an additional office in North Carolina.
