About this listen

 In this episode of Indiana 250 Off the Record, host Nate Feltman talks with Pete Yonkman, president of Cook Group and its subsidiary Cook Medical. Based in Bloomington, Cook is Indiana’s 3rd largest private company and a key player in the life sciences sector. Yonkman shares insights on what it takes to be a medical innovator and why Cook’s 57 medical firsts were all born from collaboration. He also discusses a unique partnership with Goodwill that brought a manufacturing facility, and new opportunity, to a historically underserved Indianapolis neighborhood. A Crown Point native and IU Maurer law grad, Yonkman reflects on his wide-ranging interests from supporting NIL initiatives and local nonprofits to producing a film at West Baden Springs Hotel.  Start your dollar a week trial now at ⁠IBJ.com/trialoffer⁠ Check out our event lineup and register now at ⁠IBJ.com/Register ⁠ Discover which programs are accepting nominations now at ⁠IBJ.com/Nominate⁠
