How we engage
Shaped by the opportunity, not a fixed menu.
We work with a range of partners, and we adapt the structure accordingly. The right structure is one that makes the product happen — so we tailor the commercial framework to the asset and the partner’s strategic goals.
Engagement types
Real examples of how we work.
A snapshot of the engagement structures we undertake — each adapted to the partner and the asset.
Inventor or patent holder
For an inventor who lacks a commercial team, we can form a dedicated venture where we build and operate the brand, manage distribution, and share in downstream success through margin and royalty — rather than billing large upfront fees.
Established manufacturer
For a medical device manufacturer that needs additional product management bandwidth, a specific regulatory submission, or a bridge to manufacturing transfer, we deliver targeted, milestone-based project services.
Hospital cluster or clinical department
For a clinical team with a device idea and initial clinical data, we provide the technical translation, device development and registration pathway to turn that idea into a compliant product.
Contract manufacturer
For a contract manufacturer that wants to add a proprietary product line, we act as the product development, registration and branding arm — delivering a turnkey product ready for their existing channels.
University spin-out or research institute
For a research group holding a patented biomaterial or device concept, we offer the full translational bridge from laboratory bench to regulatory-cleared production.
A commercial framework tailored to the asset.
We tailor the commercial framework — project fee, risk-share, brand ownership, territorial exclusivity, or a combination — to the asset and the partner’s strategic goals.
The right structure is one that makes the product happen.
We are not a manufacturer with a fixed offer, nor a consultancy that bills and walks away. We adapt deeply to a small number of products and partners — sharing risk where it makes sense, and committing to the outcome rather than the invoice.
Access to capital
When a project needs more than technical execution.
Some of the most promising device concepts stall not because the technology is weak, but because early-stage funding is hard to find. Pendulum Medical maintains a curated network of investors who understand medical devices and evaluate real clinical utility — not hype.
A curated investor network
Individuals, family offices and specialist funds who understand medical devices — and look past the hype to evaluate real clinical utility.
Introductions for projects we develop
For projects we are actively developing, we can facilitate introductions to investors when there is a genuine fit between capital and technology.
The right capital at the right time
Seed funding for prototype testing, support for a regulatory submission, or backing for a first production run — timing can change a project's trajectory.
To be clear: we do not act as a fund, broker or placement agent. We simply connect serious capital with serious technology when there is a genuine fit. If you have a device concept and need a partner who can also open doors to capital, we are positioned to help.
Let's talk
Hold a device concept, patent or development bottleneck? Let's make it happen.
Particularly in surgical or single-use categories, we can discuss how our capabilities align with your objectives. The right structure is one that makes the product happen.
