On behalf of the entire Insightec team, it is with hearts full of sadness and fond remembrance that we honor the legacy of our beloved colleague, Ivan Delevic, who recently lost his courageous two-year battle with cancer. Ivan's tireless dedication as an adviser and board member at Insightec was a beacon that guided us towards growth and innovation. His remarkable contributions from the moment he joined our executive team in 2020, leading upstream marketing and business development, were pivotal in shaping our company’s future. Ivan was not just a colleague, but a mentor and friend to many. I had the privilege to meet him 24 years ago via GE Healthcare, a testament to his longstanding influence on the industry. His encouragement was a driving force behind my decision to join Insightec—a decision that shaped my own path, as it did for countless others touched by his wisdom. Beyond his professional accomplishments, Ivan will be remembered for his selflessness, kindness, and the infectious smile that lit up any room. It was in the gentle strength and impact of his everyday actions that we saw the essence of his spirit. His stories, laughter, and sage advice will resonate in the halls of our office and the chambers of our hearts. We extend our deepest condolences to his wife Zita, their three amazing children Aron, Nandor, and Martin, and to everyone whose life Ivan enriched. Though he has left this world, his legacy endures in each life he touched, each project he championed, and the empowering culture he fostered within our Insightec family and beyond. Farewell, Ivan. Your memory will be cherished eternally. 🕊️ Maurice R. Ferre M.D., CEO and Chairman of the Board
