## Resource

What does it take to move a medical device from an idea to a solution that reaches patients? In this episode, Edwin Lindsay (Medtech's Guinness Guy) shares how 20+ years in medical devices shaped his hands-on approach to helping startups overcome regulatory, quality, and clinical challenges. He discusses why innovators need more than advice—they need experienced partners who help make decisions, execute strategies, and accelerate progress. Edwin also explores the hurdles facing pediatric device innovation and how his personal connection to the field inspired his mission to support founders and build stronger networks for life-changing technologies.
