Raised as the youngest of four in an Irish Catholic family, Mike Minogue chose to attend the United States Military Academy at West Point, driven by a sense of service and patriotism instilled in him by his parents.

After graduating from West Point with a B.S. in Engineering Management in 1989, Mike served as an Infantry officer in the U.S. Army, where he earned multiple distinctions including RANGER tab and the Bronze Star for acting as the lead navigator and Platoon Leader for the U.S. Army’s invasion (24th Infantry) into Iraq for Operation Desert Storm in 1991. Upon leaving Active Duty, Mike remained in the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) for nine more years.

Mike was drawn to the medical device industry for its purpose to improve and save the lives of people all over the world, starting his career at General Electric (GE) HealthCare, where he rose through the ranks to ultimately manage multiple business with more than 1,000 employees, generate over $1 billion in revenue, and receive 4 patents for software engineering.

After GE, Mike served for nearly 19 years as Chairman, President and CEO of Abiomed, Inc., a Massachusetts-based medical device company headquartered in Danvers, MA since 1981. Under Mike’s leadership, the company created the field of heart recovery through the development of Impella®, the world’s smallest heart pump and became a cornerstone of the Massachusetts life sciences ecosystem by driving local job creation and expanding manufacturing and research operations in the state.

Mike more than doubled the size of Abiomed’s Danvers headquarters, including new state-of-the-art, in-house research and manufacturing capabilities, creating several hundred engineering and manufacturing jobs in the Commonwealth. Today, Abiomed continues to employ more than 2,000 people in Massachusetts.

With Mike at its helm, Abiomed, Inc. treated more than 250,000 patients, grew to $1.2B in annual sales, and became one of the fastest growing, and most profitable, medical device companies in the nation. The growth and success of Abiomed, Inc, under Mike’s leadership, culminated in an acquisition by Johnson & Johnson for $17B, making it the largest all-cash acquisition in medical device history and the 7th largest MedTech deal of all time. During his tenure, the Abiomed stock appreciated from $8 per share to $380 per share.

Since 2017, Mike has served on the Board of Insulet (PODD: NASDAQ), the world leader in insulin pumps, headquartered and manufactured in Acton, MA. Mike also served as a member of the board of the medical device industry association, AdvaMed, from 2007 to 2023, and as Chairman from 2021 to 2023. As Chairman, Mike played a key role in shaping national policy for the medical device industry, including successfully standing up to government overreach and fighting to permanently repeal the 2.3% medical device excise tax. This major legislative victory will unlock an estimated $25 billion over the coming decade, making more resources available for investments in research, job creation, and innovation.

Mike is also the co-founder of BOOST, the #1 supplier of portable cans offering 95% pure oxygen for health, recovery, and athletic performance as seen on Shark Tank. He is also the inventor of ProCan, a patented pulmonary oxygen resuscitation canister device for people requiring mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

In 2012, Mike founded MedTechVets, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that helps military veterans discover career opportunities in the medical device industry. He continues to serve as Chairman of the Board.

Mike and Renee have been married for over twenty years and raised their five children in Massachusetts. Mike enjoys reading, running, strength training, coaching and skiing with his family and friends.
