“Launching Runway has been years in the making and a culmination of my background and passion across the tech, pharma and travel industries,” said Runway Founder and CEO, Joshua Rome. “As someone who has trekked across 60 countries myself, spent 7 years in the pharmaceutical world, 7 years in the tech industry, and 3 years in travel, I know all-too-well that unexpected ailments can easily ruin a trip. Runway is conquering a key whitespace and streamlining the pre-travel planning process by providing an affordable, simple and modernized solution for receiving prescription medications. Runway is your globetrotting companion, confidant, virtual doctor and trusted tool promising travel without compromise, and I’m thrilled to see how we can help you prepare for your next adventure.”
