Since 2005 we’ve helped scores of companies speed their project development.
If not for the analysis and market research undertaken by Dr. Field, MET Tech would not have been funded. Dr. Field helped not only in dealing with purely technical issues, but also in market positioning of our products and assessment of the competitive landscape. She has very widespread contacts in the industry, and we are looking forward to working with her in the near future.
SmallTech Consulting was a great temporary addition to our internal yield improvement team. They quickly came up to speed on the issue at hand and provided multiple solutions, including several that were quite unique and innovative. Additionally, they were proactive and great to work with! We will certainly use them to supplement our efforts in the future.
In the early stages of developing a micro-miniature drug delivery system I hired Leslie Field to research the MEMS literature for prior art and interesting ideas. This task was done promptly and thoroughly demonstrating technical depth and breadth, but more importantly it was done with a creative flare and perspective for the overall project goals. As the project progressed, Leslie moved on to the task of inventing micro-valve devices to be used in conjunction with drug delivery systems. Her production here was also top notch, resulting in patent applications on several inventions. Follow-up included vendor search and management for prototype building. Her contacts in industry and academic contacts in specialty fields also proved valuable.
Dr. Leslie Field and her team at SmallTech were involved in our MEMS product development project from ideation through prototyping and were fundamental in each phase. ... Dr. Field's work during the concept and initial design phases of our project was particularly strong as she is impressively creative and, combined with her extensive experience and background in the field, she delivered a multitude of design options to meet our product specifications. She has a great working relationship with several foundries and worked directly with them to deliver timely prototypes.
Leslie and I have worked together on several projects over the past 10 years. Her visionary thinking, her understanding of fundamental fluid mechanics, physics, electronics, and microfabrication chemistry, MEMS design, layout and process are, and have been, a tremendous asset and a key driver for successful technology development. She is a very passionate, tireless multitasker, and excels at thinking out-of-the-box to solve challenging MEMS problems. A pleasure to work with!
The SmallTech Consulting Team provides creative, advanced drug delivery technologies, fueled by their deep expertise and authority in MEMS-based sensor technologies and drug delivery subsystems fo pharmaceutical applications. This is by far one of the most competent teams I have worked with and I would recommend them for future collaboration.”
My company has worked with SmallTech on projects across several disciplines including MEMS, displays, optics, and IP. We have found SmallTech to be a trusted advisor to and integral extension of our company. SmallTech's core team represents a unique cross-section across many functional areas and sectors of hightech and is truly outstanding.
We have engaged SmallTech in early-stage innovation projects in diverse fields ranging from MEMS to food science. Leslie, Phil, Mateusz, Remy, Alex, and Kalyan [or "SmallTech” if you need to conserve space] are impressively competent. They are highly creative inventors, strong researchers, prototypers, and problem solvers who know how to execute and deliver. I trust SmallTech to make good decisions and set appropriate priorities on complex projects in the face of uncertainty. I appreciate their open communication and collaborative approach when identifying possible solutions to a problem and I always look forward to working with Leslie and her team.”
SmallTech Consulting performed technical diligence for us on a biomedical MEMS opportunity. Leslie and the team were fantastic to work with. They truly are domain experts and brought valuable insight and a wealth of relevant experience. They understood our needs as investors and gave us exactly what we needed, while sticking to a tight timeline.
