Description
It only takes one ground-breaking MedTech startup to change a product category forever. Back in 2006, serial entrepreneur Steve Kelly partnered with MIT researchers to take an anti-bleeding gel product to market. The biodegradable gel was a significantly better option for many hemostat applications, compared to alternatives like bandages, surgical clamps, tissue adhesives, vasoconstrictors, and cauterization. Today, topical hemostatic agents are considered the most efficient, effective, and safe option to stop bleeding in many patients and conditions.Winning medical device startups have a few factors in common, according to McKinsey research. First, they all have an idea that can provide consistently superior experiences to all users, including patients, caregivers, and clinicians. They will also “reimagine processes to dramatically reduce costs and accelerate decision making.” The most successful MedTech companies manage to get closer to the patient by providing an innovation that’s better, cheaper, safer, more convenient, or somehow just a better option.In order to get close to the patient, MedTech startups need to achieve velocity in the early stages to provide proof-of-concept, secure funding, and demonstrate clinical safety for regulatory approval. There’s no room for mistakes or delays in a hyper-competitive market space. A strong baseline of compliance is crucial from day one to ensure there are no barriers to obtaining FDA approval or a CE Mark.That's one of the reasons we exist.
