Mobius Medical helps large and small medical device companies grow shareholder value. My two areas of strength are (1) building companies - enterprise leadership, and (2) building products - medical devices which improve patient lives. As a company builder, I have 18 years of enterprise leadership experience. I have served as a the founder, CEO, Board Member, or Board Chairman of several companies, including Hayes Biomedical Consulting Services, Hayes Medical Incorporated, National Medical Specialty, US Medical Products, and Wireless 2000. Business building requires vision, planning, and execution. I have written many successful business plans, and raised over $25 Million dollars in private equity placements, convertible debt, and other financing instruments. As a builder of products and technologies, I personally have dozens of patented inventions. I have helped inventors refine and patent protect their ideas. A strong patent position makes the job of raising venture capital considerably easier. A strong patent portfolio is the single greatest tool for creating wealth for the inventor and other shareholders via an IPO, selling the product, or selling the entire company. Many inventors do not adequately protect themselves, file narrow claims, and leave money on the table. Using our patent portfolio review process, and we often help clients expand and fortify their patent position by acquiring some key technologies which compliment those invented in house. We have successfully completed IP transactions valued as low as a few thousand dollars, and as high as ten million dollars. We have helped companies streamline the process of concept review, prior art investigations, and decision making. The value of an organization, established during an IPO, merger, or acquisition, is largely based on the strength of the company's intellectual proprietary portfolio. When selling patented products, one wants to close the door on the competition.
