LaunchMN Selects Anser Implants for Startup Showcase
LaunchMN is “a statewide collaborative effort to accelerate startups and amplify Minnesota as a leader in innovation.” Indeed, this MN DEED initiative has helped seemingly countless startups obtain grants and other critical funding, network connections, and supplies a continuous stream of invaluable information across the industy.
Knowing how well-respected the LaunchMN platform is across the country, it was all the more humbling and exciting that Anser Implants was selected for their coveted Startup Showcase. This venue brings together vetted startups and investors alike to quickly advance the fundraising conversation for all parties. As part of the process, subject matter experts reviewed our pitch deck and provided invaluable feedback to ensure the best possible reception for our company when we went live.
We had just 4 minutes to make our pitch! Founder, Paul Hoogervorst, talked faster than he thought possible to meet the deadline and he did an outstanding job delivering the message on what sets the Anser Clavicle Pin apart in the marketplace. Anser Implants has had a less-than-traditional startup journey bootstrapping all the way through regulatory achievements (510(k) and CE certification) and generating revenue across the US. Our upcoming investment round will focus on strategically growing on our team, expanding our reach and generating clinical data. Stay tuned for more exciting developments…!
