About The Host

This masterclass is led by Nishant Varma, cofounder of Safe Obstetric Systems — the company behind Fetal Pillow, an innovative obstetric medical device taken from concept through commercialisation and eventual acquisition by CooperSurgical.

Nishant, accompanied by guest speakers, will share key lessons from this 10-year journey to ensure other founders are well equipped to navigate the challenges of commercialisation and clinical adoption, following regulatory clearance.

Each lesson will be carefully crafted for maximum impact. You will leave this masterclass with immediately actionable steps, as well as the opportunity to connect directly with clinicians in person.
