For Ted Mosler, the Jenkins MBA program provided all the tools he needed to turn his engineering know -h ow into a thriving business.

While at NC State, Mosler was a part of the Entrepreneurship and Technology Commercialization concentration, which bridges the gap between the laboratory and the marketplace. This highly focused experience helped to shape his

perspective on design and development.

Mosler pursued his MBA while working as an engineer for a medical device company.

Within a year of graduation, he and two colleagues founded Gilero Biomedical, which specialized in the design and development of medical devices. Through a merger, Mosler’s company is now a vertically integrated biomedical resource named EG GILERO, which operates in the United States and Asia. Mosler serves as CTO and is also an established inventor with more than 50 U.S. and foreign patents to his name.
