While completing his PhD program, Gert Nijenbanning developed a scoliosis brace. He spun the project out of his university to pursue commercialization.

Quotes by Mike Moyer (?)

“The world seems to be designed in a way that success is never as easy as we hope. Getting there takes not only the right vision, but also the right level of perseverance that some people just don’t have.”
― Mike Moyer, Slicing Pie: Fund Your Company Without Funds

“Being an entrepreneur requires a great amount of trust and confidence. It requires bold moves and big ideas that change the way people think about life. When entrepreneurs become less confident and less trusting effectiveness diminishes. When they get burned by their partners they do learn, but they learn bad lessons. They learn to spend more time covering their own butts. They learn to spend more time and money writing contracts and agreements.”
― Mike Moyer, Slicing Pie: Fund Your Company Without Funds

“When employees give up and stay, the environment becomes plagued with resentment and low morale.”
