What does it mean to turn a dream into a business plan? How do you take your vision of a better future, whatever that looks like, and translate that into a company? It's a difficult leap! This grand vision has to be broken down into steps, arranged on a timeline. Then your dream becomes tied to the bottom line profits, to your employees and your board.
We've had guests before that have made that leap, whether it's Austin Hillam's ZipString or Jennifer Smith's Scribe. But our guest today has a dream we haven't seen before on this show––revolutionizing how we treat broken bones. Nina Tandon is the co-founder and CEO of EpiBone, a biomedical engineering firm that brings together stem cells and 3D technology to grow bone grafts. Yes, you heard that right – Nina is growing bones.
Her method's already been shown to work, but turning those studies into widespread adoption – now that's a big dream. So how does Nina balance her two selves – the researcher, and the CEO?
