Make your innovation so clear, that the data only confirms the obvious 🔍

That's the ultimate MedTech challenge.

It's also the core philosophy behind InspireMD's success with CGuard® Prime: the physical design of the CGuard is so intuitively safe and effective at stabilizing plaque that it beats skepticism.

The data simply acts as the non-negotiable proof that the product delivers on its promise.

Ever heard of a medical device that breaks all the rules? 🤔

Traditional stents used to have a big problem:

They were either flexible (but left gaps), OR strong (but stiff and harder to place)

It was a trade-off, and doctors had to choose.

But then came the CGuard® Prime Carotid Stent System.

InspireMD's Shane Gleason explains how CGuard Prime combines the best of both worlds.

Imagine a stent that's:

Strong AND safe - with a special, super-fine mesh to keep plaque exactly where it belongs, preventing strokes + flexible and easy - Yet it's still agile enough for doctors to place with ease.

Check here: https://youtu.be/HcJmDUb3yYU to discover how this design is changing stroke prevention in our newest Life of Flow episode with Shane Gleason.

People don't like trying new things...

But that mindset is scary when it comes from physicians and people in healthcare.

It's one of the toughest challenges in MedTech: convincing experienced doctors to abandon a 20-year-old method for a demonstrably safer and better technology.

Why do some doctors resist safer innovation?

And why would you take risks by choosing outdated standards?

That's the danger of comfort.

It's never been easier for hospitals... to keep new products out đź‘€

A powerful product, like the CGuard® Prime Carotid Stent System, is only half the battle.

What happens when a life-changing innovation is ready, but the market is closed off?

As the Chief Commercial Officer of InspireMD, Shane Gleason knows this very well.

But bringing a game-changer to market isn't just about the technology, it's also about getting it into the right hands... and the strategy behind it.

Learn how he executed the plan for ensuring this crucial technology reaches the physicians who need it most, in this week's Life of Flow podcast episode.

Don’t think of growth as a straight-up line.

It’s a cycle you move through again and again.

Learn something new - get stretched, get humbled, get sharper...

And then step into the next chapter.

Entrepreneur Mathias Ihlenfeld lives this philosophy... and breaks it down in this week’s episode.

Believe it or not, your strongest product will NEVER be what you sell ⬇️

It’s the EXPERIENCE someone has the moment they interact with you.

Most founders pour everything into perfecting the offer… and the part people remember most is always how you made them feel while they were deciding.

In this episode, entrepreneur and executive coach Mathias Ihlenfeld breaks down the fundamentals brands often miss...

If you keep doing this, you’ll keep setting yourself up for failure ⛔

You say you want change, but the minute you hit a difficult decision, it feels too risky or too unconventional.

We're talking about moments when the “sensible” advice is "don’t do it," "the odds are against you," and the only thing left to lean on is conviction.

Anytime you’re building something new, there comes a point where you either go all in… or you stay exactly where you are.

This lesson is bigger than medicine.

Your career isn’t one long straight line.

It’s a series of doors you’ve walked through even when you didn’t feel ready.

Things get clearer when you stop chasing “perfect” and start recognizing the mini-journeys you’ve already lived (Mathias knows this better than most!)
