Almost 10 years ago, Hawa Zamani started in the medical equipment and service industry as a sales rep. Today, she is CEO of Biomedical Support Systems.
“A passion for what I was doing grew within me, and I knew I was going to pursue this industry,” Hawa stated. “I knew that it would be a part of me for many years to come. Six years ago, my mother and I made a decision to start our own company and create a more personal touch in the medical equipment sales and service industry. There are many female sales reps in this industry. However, the service side is a predominantly male industry, and I wanted to be part of it.”
TechNation learned more about Biomedical Support Systems in a question-and-answer session.

We also wish to create an online portal for technical information needed from our technicians.
As the CEO, my personal goal is to expand nationally and create jobs, continuing to grow and be innovative enough to create the most up-to-date information at the touch of your fingers. I want to expand and share our knowledge and experiences through an interactive website. Therefore, our clients can add personal experiences that would add knowledge and benefits for the patients that use the equipment needed for their care. Being able to provide jobs and helping others through my company is our ultimate goal.
