That's a wrap on the The MedTech Conference! #MTC24 flew by in a blur of exciting conversations and new connections. Our team enjoyed sharing our passion for medical device design and manufacturing with the global medtech community — from startups and industry giants to the investors, accelerators and associations like AdvaMed that bring everyone together. Connecting with people from the US, Canada, EU, Asia and beyond, it's clear the drive to improve patient care is stronger than ever in medtech. Highlight: The True North MedTech Mixer, co-hosted with our partners Mintz, Prolucid Technologies, Megalab Group Inc., MassMEDIC , and RQM+. We enjoyed creating a fun, no-pressure space for the global medtech community to unwind, right here in downtown Toronto. Plus, the delicious food and drinks didn't hurt either! #MedTechCon isn't just a conference. It's where ideas turn into "why didn't we think of this before?" moments. Where competitors become collaborators, and where the next big breakthrough in patient care might just be born over a handshake. The experience this week was about new partnerships, fresh ideas, and the connections that'll shape the future of healthcare. To everyone who stopped by our booth or joined the mixer: thanks for making this week unforgettable. You're the reason this industry keeps pushing boundaries. Let's keep the momentum going and create some medtech magic together!

🔑 Unlocking the Benefits of Local Supply Chains 🔑 Yesterday CME Ontario hosted webinar for Ontario Made's Manufacturing Day. Our founder, Ray Minato, shared some insights on why local supply chains matter more than ever. After 20+ years of managing complex local and global supply chains, Ray highlighted the hidden advantages that local suppliers can offer. Here are some key takeaways: 1️⃣ Beyond Visible Costs – It’s not just about unit cost. Ray emphasized the importance of understanding the total cost of acquisition (TCA), including hidden costs like supplier management, inventory holding, and quality control. 2️⃣ Local = Agility – With local suppliers, you can reduce lead times, control the supply chain more effectively, and minimize risks like currency fluctuations and geopolitical instability. 3️⃣ Sustainability Wins – A local approach can lower your transportation costs and environmental impact, making sustainability a core part of your strategy. 4️⃣ Stronger Supplier Relationships – Ray reminded us that great supplier relationships go beyond price negotiations. Building trust and collaborating early leads to innovation, better quality, and mutual growth. 5️⃣ Risk Reduction – Local supply chains can mitigate risks associated with global disruptions, making your business more resilient in uncertain times. 🚀⚡ At Inertia, these aren’t just talking points. For over two decades, we’ve been manufacturing products with an eye toward balancing cost, innovation, and scalablity. Whether managing local or global supply chains, we know how to leverage relationships to deliver the best outcomes for our clients. https://lnkd.in/e5qMtnQ2 #SupplyChainExcellence #LocalManufacturing #TotalCostOfAcquisition #SupplierRelationships #Sustainability #InertiaPD #ManufacturingInnovation #OntarioMade

Yesterday, the Inertia Product Development team got together offsite and took a step back from our day-to-day whirlwind of pioneering new innovations. We talked about the inspiring, challenging, rewarding ride we've been on this past 12 months. We also spent some time talking about what's ahead. Just like so many types of businesses, change is happening at warp speed in product development. What made the day even better was our founder Ray Minato brought us all together for dinner to celebrate a major milestone — 20 years of Inertia. Here’s to many more years of designing and launching things that haven't been done before - and to the group of pretty great humans who make it happen.

🎯 From Silos to Synchronicity: Unlocking Speed in Developing an At-Home Blood Diagnostics Device The wizards at Inertia Product Development just wrapped up the development of an ultra high-fidelity, looks-like/works-like prototype for an at-home blood diagnostics device....in record time. To deliver such a complex medical device at speed, we had to seamlessly coordinate across multiple disciplines. How did we do it? By curating a best-in-class tool stack designed for high-leverage collaboration. ⚡ Our electronics and mechanical teams use cloud-enabled tools like @Altium® 365 and Onshape, a PTC Technology giving all stakeholders real-time access to design data with unmatched transparency. 📟 For firmware, we’ve shifted to a scalable, cloud-enabled system with Bitbucket, Docker, Inc, and CI/CD pipelines, allowing global collaboration and faster iterations, even before the hardware is ready. ✅ Add in Miro for creative collaboration and Atlassian Jira for task and timeline management, and you have a fully integrated, real-time approach. All these tools are connected by a single source of truth, keeping every phase—from prototyping to testing and sourcing—aligned and moving fast. Without this unified approach, you’re left with fragmented data and costly delays.
