“We’re not trying to find ways to use new technologies in medicine. We start from the clinical need. From there, we try to find technologies that will help us develop products that are going to solve that need.”
"We're not up there in the balcony giving the thumbs up or thumbs down as entrepreneurs make their pitches. We build the story; we bring in the necessary assets; we create the company, often from scratch."
