● Medical device startups need to identify what is non-negotiable to build a culture of quality and train employees.
● A quality system is set up for a reason. Companies should focus on making products that they’re proud of and help patients.
● Biggest mistake is when inventor puts technology before patients: Who am I making it for? What do they want? What does it have to do? How to deliver it?
