Follow your passion is this entrepreneur's loud and clear message.

Quote:
An engineer with 25 years of experience in the medical device industry, Robert Torgerson decided to change career paths in 2013 by creating his own company: a medical-grade fiber specialist named RxFiber LLC (Windsor, CA).

Now the CEO of that firm, Torgerson must be doing something right: the company has recently won two awards and their technology was featured in a presentation at the annual Society for Biomaterials meeting. Last year, the firm’s novel microfiber, RxFibron HT, won UBM Canon’s Golden Mousetrap award. In 2014, the company won the North Bay Business Journal’s Manufacturer of the Year award.

    That's quite an inspiring story for someone looking to startup in the MedTech industry. Thanks for sharing Ramani sir.
    The man does miss working with his engineer colleagues, that's something every startup owner goes through if he/she goes into their own venture after a spending a considerable amount of time at a job. Like he mentions, the security of the cubicle is too hard to give-up for many with great product ideas.
