How we can help
Still doubtful about whether you can do this? In many cases, we can help. Here’s how we help with some of the common problems that startup companies face. No more excuses!
I don’t have the money…
Upon acceptance, we provide a cash infusion of $25,000 – with an opportunity for an additional $25,000 – to help you realize your dream!
I’m a great surgeon/engineer/tecnician, but don’t know the first thing about marketing/sales/finance…
We team you up with a couple of mentors with great hands-on, industry experience to fill in the gaps!
The FDA process is just too daunting…
We have relationships with great FDA consultants that will explain the process and help you navigate the murky regulatory waters.
I have no space to start a company…
We provide you with space in our incubator facility as well as a desk, a phone, and internet.
I don’t have the time that it would take to do this…
Thanks to our innovative program, we can get you to an FDA filing in less time than you could possibly do so on your own.
I don’t have access to design/engineering to create a prototype…
We can help you get access to design and manufacturing resources to help get your prototype created – fast!
