Launching a MedTech Spin-Out Company: The Journey from Academia towards Deployment

In this talk, Jeff will share the journey of turning academic research into the spin-out company IngeniumAI. Originally a postdoctoral research project led by Jeff, IngeniumAI is dedicated to reducing diagnostic delays for uncommon but deadly diseases by harnessing underutilised medical imaging data. Jeff will outline the path from initiating the research to forming a company and managing its day-to-day operations. The talk will explore key challenges in developing and deploying Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) and AI as a Medical Device (AIaMD) products, including funding, regulatory, and market access considerations.
