Amber Therapeutics has developed a solution that scientists previously thought was impossible — a revolutionary implantable system that treats urinary incontinence by targeting the pudendal nerve. For founder Aidan Crawley, this journey into groundbreaking science came after a successful career in finance and software. His true passion: taking on a major unmet healthcare need that could improve millions of lives. “I got exhausted trying to come up with the next trillion-dollar app in crowded markets, wondering if we were inventing problems to solve,” Aidan says. “I wanted to work on a problem that is indisputably real, where the difficulty is in the execution. If you’ve got a cure for a disease that impacts millions of people and you have 55 hurdles to get over, that’s a fun challenge.” Read our full Q&A with Aidan to learn more about his journey founding Amber Therapeutics and why he’s forecasting a bright future for health tech. https://lnkd.in/gH6YYhSE #healthtech #founders #medicine

For Cloudflare Co-Founder Michelle Zatlyn, “ruthless prioritization” was key to scaling successfully. “When you're building a company, you have to build everything. There's always way more things to do than people or time to do it," says Zatlyn. Before Cloudflare was a connectivity cloud giant, it was eight people in a room making decisions that would impact the future – and fate – of the business. By prioritizing only the most important tasks and working in three-week segments, the team got done what they needed to and steadily picked up more and more steam. Listen to the full conversation with NEA’s Scott Sandell for the inside scoop on Cloudflare’s first days, how the business grew from fledgling startup to an industry leader, and what it’s like to be a female founder in tech. https://lnkd.in/gRmMT8k9 #startups #founders #podcast
