Also, if you have ideas for medical innovations or inventions and are looking for a company or manufacturer to license them, one good source is a non-profit organization called Inventors Workshop International. They can help you find potential licensees. You can find them at http://www.Inventor-Help-Services.org. Also, Invention-Licensing-Help.org.
