SAN ANTONIO (PRWEB) February 27, 2014
Invictus Medical, the San Antonio-based medical device company dedicated to providing newborns with healthy developmental milestones, today announced that Kelly Rodriques has been named to its Board of Directors.
Rodriques is a nationally respected business executive and advisor with an extensive background in investment management and venture capital, and a history of founding companies, creating jobs, and increasing value for shareholders. He currently serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of PENSCO, Inc., and PENSCO Trust Company in San Francisco. With more than $ 10 billion in assets under custody, PENSCO is a retirement account custodian specializing in alternative assets.
“Kelly Rodriques not only is an accomplished executive, but a widely respected and sought-after advisor who represents the greatest principles of leadership, innovation and entrepreneurship and who has achieved success across an incredibly diverse set of business ventures,” said Tom Roberts, Invictus Medical President, CEO and Board Member. “We are honored to have him as a director of our company and proud to have an entire board with such depth and breadth of experience at every level of business.”
Prior to joining PENSCO in 2010, Rodriques worked as Chief Executive Officer of Totality Corporation, now a software and services unit within Verizon. He also was Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Novo, an Internet marketing and media company sold to Publicis Groupe in 2001. Additionally, he served as Operating Partner of Ignition Growth Capital, where he focused on investing in early- and mid-stage growth companies. Rodriques currently serves as a board member to mobile financial services pioneer mFoundry. He also is a previous board advisor to the Partnership for a Drug-Free America.
“The companies I have founded or led have been diverse in nature, but similar in that they had great people excited to be part of something special,” said Rodriques. “Invictus has that same ‘something special’ – in addition to being fundamentally, financially, and operationally well positioned. That is what I always look at first – the people. Tom Roberts and the leadership team at Invictus Medical and my fellow directors on the board possess three traits that help build great businesses. First, they are doing what they love; second, they know their priorities; and third, they think big. There is great potential for Invictus and those across the marketplace will benefit from it.”
Invictus Medical’s Board of Directors also includes Chairman Steve Dufilho, an accomplished financial services and health care CEO with deep board and governance experience; Lynne Nauss, a well respected global health care and medical device executive; Tom Roberts, President and CEO of Invictus Medical; and, Eric Eisbrenner, Chief Financial Officer of Invictus Medical.
Rodriques graduated from Fresno State University, where, among other accomplishments, he was a world-class collegiate pole vaulter. He competed in the U.S. Track and Field National Championship and in the 1986 World Games in Helsinki, Finland.
Rodriques is married and lives with his wife and three children in Marin County, California, where he is actively involved in youth sports.
Invictus Medical’s technology interest focuses on combating deformational plagiocephaly (DP), a cranial deformity exhibited in infants resulting from repeated external pressure to one area of the head. In addition to being a cosmetic issue, according to a study published in Pediatrics in 2013, DP has been associated with heightened risk for developmental delays in infants and toddlers.
The company anticipates initially marketing its product to pediatric hospitals and NICUs. The company expects to submit its 510k application to the FDA in the first half of 2014 and estimates launching its first product within the year. Invictus Medical closed its seed round of funding in 2013 at 100 percent of target, has raised more than $ 2 million to date, and began its Series A funding in the first quarter of 2014.

White Bear Lake, MN (PRWEB) November 19, 2013
After looking at the wide array of products Envision Plastics custom manufactures, one can easily see that the NMR plastic fabrication technology reaches many markets and industries. However, the realm of medical device manufacturing stands out as a market who has embraced this niche product and service offering from Envision Plastics time and time again.
Customers from all over the United States and Canada have used the No Molds Required Technology for their custom plastic enclosure needs with respect to their medical device cases, frames, panels, or displays. Within the medical device industry, many specialty areas have implemented NMR produced items. These include: ultrasound, MR, wound therapy, pharmaceutical packaging, cardiovascular, and even dental. The medical device manufacturers in these areas are both small start-ups using venture capital funding as well as Fortune 500 firms including Boston Scientific, St. Jude Medical, Medtronic, and GE Medical Systems.
Despite typical production volumes being low (which fits the NMR niche market well), orders are consistent and often repeat. Not only do the specific part orders for enclosures repeat, but the technology is utilized again and again by developers at these medical device firms. Some firms have developed dozens of different plastic medical enclosures over the span of a decade – proving just how well NMR has been received in the medical industry. Sure, some medical device manufactures have large budgets for hard goods and R&D. However, saving up to $ 250,000 on a mold by using NMR Technology can make any project come in under budget!

Capital medical venture or angel investor? Most entrepreneurs are confounded with this all-important question today. Who will invest money in their business or, more importantly which sort of investment should they approach? What would suit their business better?
Capital Medical Venture
A really good way of gauging this is by gauging your business venture. If you are confident of the ability of your business venture to provide good returns really soon, then go for venture capital firms. If you want to start large, then this is for you. These firms invest a whole lot of money, yes Im talking big money here their starting investment is five hundred thousand dollars and it goes into millions! But, they also charge a really high rate of interest more than twenty percent per annum. Plus you need to give them quick returns, which generally is not a problem in the medicine field.
A capital medical venture is a venture which is quite challenging to finance because it is a type of venture which requires an extensive expertise of the industry and a very, very methodical form of planning. The good news is nowadays, venture capital firms are actively on the lookout for companies like manufacturers of diagnostics, radiation systems of the intracoronary kind and surgical instruments which are minimally invasive. So if you are starting out on a business in the medical field, a capital medical venture, then this is the best time to start.
There are groups of venture capitalists who are very generous indeed and are willing to provide an entrepreneur with two hundred million dollars on (hold your breath!) a single transaction. What is more they are willing to consider many different kinds of investment structures such as management buyouts, recapitalizations which are leveraged, minority equity positions as well. So they are willing to be flexible.
Whom To Choose?
Coming back to the main point. What are the differences between an angel investor and a venture capital firm?
An angel investor generally has his own pricate money which he is willing to invest in a business. But a venture capitalist gets their money from a collection or rather, a group of wealthy individuals. Thus there is a big difference in the motivations of these two kinds of investors and the reasons behind why they invest.
A venture capital firms main motivation is to get good returns. Moreover, competition for their limited kind of funding is extremely keen. Many firms fund only about five companies out of say, every thousand business proposals they view per year so they are extremely cautious.
Angel investors have, on the other hand, experience in building a company. Sometimes, it gives them a high to invest in new startups and that is their sole reason for investment. Sometimes an idea catches their fancy and they invest for the heck of it.
A capital medical venture is often a risky business, so opting for an gel investor in this case is the best course of action for a new entrepreneur.
