New Scouting episode - how does the crisis affect a start-up?
In this episode, Per Persson, CEO of Acarix, talks about how the crisis has affected them as a start-up company in medical technology. "The product is launched but of course our momentum is affected as our primary customer group naturally has to prioritize the COVID-19 situation"
- How do you prioritize as a start-up company when the commercial work is underway but customers are difficult to meet due to the current situation?
- How does the fact that a large proportion of clinical trials worldwide are almost at a standstill while available resources are focused on COVID-19 affect development?
- How will healthcare change after the crisis, will there be a greater focus on early patient assessment and less invasive methods to reduce burden?
- Will tech companies emerge victorious from the crisis as many predict?
The video is about 15 minutes long and ends with Per sending a topical question to the next interviewee.
