At Ventures, we employ scores of Rose-Hulman student interns every year to work closely with our clients on product development and innovation. As a result, our interns get valuable real-world work experience while our client companies gain potential new employees while benefiting from the fresh perspectives, boundless energy and strong work ethic the interns bring to every assignment.
Bringing a new medical device to market involves much more than having a good idea. Does the product infringe on existing patents? Can it clear regulatory hurdles?
