Medical technology development and commercialization is a process driven by creativity, focus, and perseverance. Despite a wide range of technologies and fields of application, there are many common threads that are core elements of successful medical product development. Technological considerations are only one aspect of the equation but tend to monopolize the time and attention of many MedTech innovators. Successful translation from ‘bench to bedside’ often requires a holistic perspective. The ability to learn from mistakes and pivot toward potential is a transferable entrepreneurial skill that can be leveraged broadly. The first part of the presentation focuses on first-hand experiences and lessons learned from developing medical technology products and building a design and development company. The second part of the discussion shares a series of observations on medical technology commercialization that should resonate with those who are working to bring their medical product idea to market and clinical use.
