Leonard Marshall, Two-Time Super Bowl Champion, Executive Director, Game Plan Foundation, to Address Attendees in October
 
RAMSEY, N.J.—Few athletes understand the implications of sports injury better than Leonard Marshall. As an advocate for retired National Football League (NFL) players at the Game Plan Foundation, he assists those in need of orthopedic implants, bone regeneration and more.

On Thurs., Oct. 8, 2009, Marshall will deliver an animated presentation about the trials and tribulations of former NFL stars, facing the task of navigating the healthcare system as they seek appropriate care. “I am thrilled to be a part of ODT Conference & Exhibition. The event’s focus is to advance orthopedics and ultimately patient care, which is closely aligned with our mission at The Game Plan Foundation,” Marshall said. “This conference heightens awareness of a worthy cause—making sure people are getting the care they need and deserve.”

Other topics to be covered during the two-day event include regulatory compliance, industry market intelligence, product development and engineering trends, as well as surgeons’ perspective on future technology. An audience of more than 400 key orthopedic manufacturers and suppliers will gather for the 4th Annual ODT Conference & Exhibition, held Oct. 6-8, 2009, in Fort Wayne, Ind., minutes away from one of the nation’s foremost orthopedic development centers. Ample education and networking opportunities have been planned for the leading orthopedic manufacturing event.
