Darin Acopan

Darin helped scale the Bowflex brand from $50M to $450M in annual revenues over a 8 year span. He transitioned to the dental space in 2014 as the head of business development for Stratus Dental’s DSO division.

His success as a top performer at the organizations he has worked for is not a product of chance.
