Absolutely, I'd be happy to speak to that.
Developing a novel medical device from an early idea is something that StarFish is very used to doing, so in terms of a technical path, we were pretty well equipped with our standard existing partners and our own capability to do that. The big challenge was the timeline, the outrageously aggressive timeline. For that, a big part of the challenge was to field all of the offers of help and to get the best from them, as you say.
Linamar people, I think, were prime movers in this, and MacDon, the team there in Winnipeg, met us that first weekend and its people were with us along the way and also brought in a number of supports along the supply chain, which was a big constraint. I think NGen with its connections really got things started.
IRAP really helped. An area where it helped me personally was that I had a lot of people calling wanting to do things and to contribute in many ways. Once we had selected this path to develop a ventilator, I needed somewhere to refer them that would not leave people lost, and I referred them to my local IRAP representative, who did a fantastic job of connecting to the NRC and creating alignments. I think creating alignments is the key point.
