Fire Awards: Finalist - Biotech/health care
In April, former Arch Grants winner Babyation reached a key milestone: It released what it describes as the “world’s most discreet breast pump.” Babyation’s pump, which has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, can be operated with a mobile app. The startup says its device also includes smaller breast shields, a quiet motor and simpler design than traditional breast pumps. And so far it’s experiencing strong demand for its new product, with the company saying it has a waitlist that totals 4,500 customers. Babyation is led by co-founder and CEO Samantha Rudolph.
