With extensive experience in leading the financial growth of successful companies ranging from startups through public offerings, SPACs (Special Purpose Acquisition Companies) and mergers and acquisitions, Woodward will help to guide Udo to its next level of growth.
Udo improves healthcare collaboration and strengthens communication and connections between providers and their patients through a video platform that revolutionizes and simplifies provider service for patients at the highest levels.
“Udo is progressing rapidly to fulfill an important and even life changing role in the healthcare industry by helping to expand and transform the doctor/patient relationship,” says Co-Founder and CEO Danny Frasure. “Our opportunity for growth is significant, and we are extremely pleased for the experience and talent Greg Woodward brings to ensure the financial side of our growth progresses as strategically and smoothly as possible.”

Woodward also serves as CFO for Banner Acquisition Corp, Utah’s first special purpose acquisition company, or “Blank Check” company, which went public in a $150M IPO on September 10, 2021.

His prior experience also includes serving as a Senior Vice President of a Palo Alto-based private equity firm HGGC.
“Udo is a remarkable company with tremendous potential to scale quickly and add value not only to the business ecosystem of Utah, but also to change lives and add significant value to the healthcare profession for both patients and the providers who support them,” said Woodward. “I look forward to helping guide Udo’s growth to its next level.”
