Why a Product Incubator?
Historically, medical devices have been developed via partnerships
with existing device firms or companies formed and financed by venture
capital. Recent consolidation trends have caused larger medical device
firms to internally invest in sizable R&D projects aimed to provide
greater revenue impact. Venture capital firms have developed a similar
preference to fund larger opportunities that may create high return
rates on a larger investment. This fundamental capitalization shift
leaves smaller yet clinically valuable medical device opportunities
without financial or technical support. Incumed fills this expanding
gap in the system.
