Most of the ideas and products I attempted to get funded were around the idea of transforming the electronic medical record (in the broadest sense) from a mostly free text entity to a mostly well modeled discrete data entity. For more specific ideas I would be happy to discuss outside this board.
- czr80 11y agoThanks! It's a good idea, but I can see why it was hard getting funding - it's a difficult market to enter: a lot of people are trying to do this, including large well entrenched competitors, there's a high regulatory burden, and you're selling to a conservative customer base (doctors who need to change their working habits + hospital admin who need to make a significant investment). (I'm sure you know all of that, by the way, just reflecting on how difficult it would be to convince an investor).
- gmarx 11y agoYep. I'm currently trying to figure out a "back door" to sneak in. I had a meeting with a VC yesterday (not to raise money) and she added an idea to one of my ideas and the result has me pretty excited. Of course, I've been here before ;)
