“Venture Kick has been instrumental in helping us move from concept to successfully launching our startup,” said Thomas Zumbrunn co-founder of CustomSurg a spin-off from ETH Zürich and Harvard Medical School. He shared this insight during his engaging presentation at the Venture Briefing, hosted by Venturelab at the LAUNCH 2024 event at ETH. Thomas shared the journey of building CustomSurg, a successful deep tech company, offering valuable insights on entrepreneurship, from starting a business to validating ideas, securing funding, and finding the right resources and support. The session concluded with a Q&A where he provided practical advice to aspiring entrepreneurs looking to bring their ideas to life. About: Complex bone fractures often lead to reduced quality of life and productivity, with a 25% failure rate. CustomSurg addresses this by transforming subjective treatments into data-driven, objective surgeries. Our MVP offers pre-operative planning software for optimal use of standard implants, with future plans for personalized implant design. The technology, built on proprietary IP, improves patient outcomes through faster recovery, shorter surgery times, and fewer re-operations. CustomSurg plans to market its solutions to hospitals and implant companies in trauma surgery, targeting a $1.4B market for complex fractures. Thanks to organizers ETH Entrepreneur Club and SICTIC and a special thanks to Gebert Rüf Stiftung. #MedTech #ETH #SwissStartups
