Ideas Not Dollars: Medical Device Development
Medical device incubators and accelerators help innovators launch start-ups and bring devices to market. While at first glance The Innovation Institute appears to be just that, President and CEO Joe Randolph started the company with a slightly different approach.
Randolph knew from his background as COO and CFO at St. Joseph Health System that these institutions weren’t set up to offer technology transfer and often don’t have a culture for advancing innovation. Technology transfer incubators are more common in academia, but funding is always a stumbling block when moving medical device development toward commercialization.
