Engineer (and SPCA advocate) Santiago Gutierrez was looking for a way to exercise his dog while Santiago worked long hours as an engineer at a semiconductor company. Since he couldn’t find anything, he invented something — the GoBone. This electronic “smartbone” incorporates algorithms that learn about your dog’s specific play patterns, helping to keep your pet mentally and physically active whether you are with your dog or not.
Learn how Gutierrez took his passion for dogs and engineering and set about to take a big bite out of the new Smart Pet market.

Leading the charge for energy efficiency designs through unique power conversions systems is less of a power play for this CEO and President than it is a way of life. 
Power Integrations' Balu Balakrishnan has followed an entrepreneurial path lined with seemingly distracting detours but which eventually led to new innovations in power conversion.
And he seems to get a charge out of it — even when he talks about those times he was wrong.

It’s called the widow maker for a reason as Dr. Marie Johnson experienced when her 41-year old, seemingly healthy husband died suddenly from Coronary Artery Disease or CAD — the number one killer among both men and women. And predicting a heart attack using standard risk factors is generally insufficient. 

Learn how Dr. Johnson went from tragedy to innovation to launching AUM Cardiovascular with CADense, a non-invasive acoustic and ECG device designed to help physicians detect physiological and pathological heart murmurs.

PODCAST Dr. Marie Johnson: Innovator for and from the heart

Passion for an idea, a product, and getting that product to market — all hallmarks of an entrepreneur. But the reality of bringing that innovation to life often requires skillsets that aren't necessarily a core competency of even the best of them. 

Enter entrepreneur and president of Master Electronics, Jamil Nizam, and a new Master subsidiary, Seed River. Nizam formed Seed River to assist entrepreneurs, start-ups, and early-stage companies bring their innovations to market. 

With 32 years of experience, Nizam has obviously beaten the odds with Master Electronics and its divisions — and he wants others to beat the odds, too. Hear how his experiences and a culture of family and mentorship brought him to a "Seed River".
