ANTICIPATE THE HUNGER SUMMIT 

3
00:00:01.134 --> 00:00:03.737
COULD BECOME AN ANNUAL EVENT 

4
00:00:03.737 --> 00:00:05.672
BUT WE BEGIN THIS WEEK'S

CENTER IS PUSHING TO BECOME A 

8
00:00:10.210 --> 00:00:11.411
MAGNET FOR MED TECH COMPANIES 

9
00:00:11.411 --> 00:00:12.645
FROM AROUND THE GLOBE TO PLANT 

10
00:00:12.645 --> 00:00:15.648

00:00:16.516 --> 00:00:17.784
LEAD HERE NOW WITH MORE KYLIE 

13
00:00:17.784 --> 00:00:19.619
THAT'S RIGHT GARY AND LEADERS 

14
00:00:19.619 --> 00:00:21.488
ARE CASTING A WIDE NET SAYING 

15
00:00:21.488 --> 00:00:23.189
THAT WILL PULL INTERNATIONAL 

16
00:00:23.189 --> 00:00:24.824
COMPANIES TO NORTHEAST INDIANA 

17
00:00:24.824 --> 00:00:27.060
>> FOR DECADES THE PARK FEW 

18

NIRO CENTER FOR RESEARCH AND 

19
00:00:27.794 --> 00:00:28.661
INNOVATION HAS BEEN HELPING 

20
00:00:28.661 --> 00:00:29.362
STARTUPS COMMERCIALIZE THEIR 

21
00:00:29.362 --> 00:00:32.032
IDEAS MOSTLY IN EARLY-STAGE 

22
00:00:32.032 --> 00:00:33.700
MEDICAL DEVICES THE SUCCESS 

23
00:00:33.700 --> 00:00:37.337
HAS BEEN SO THE REGION IS NOW 

24
00:00:37.337 --> 00:00:38.605
LAUNCHING THE MED TECH GLOBAL 

25
00:00:38.605 --> 00:00:39.539
GATEWAY TO STEP ON THE GAS 

26
00:00:39.539 --> 00:00:40.874
WHEN IT COMES TO ATTRACTING 

27
00:00:40.874 --> 00:00:42.809
INTERNATIONAL COMPANIES THE 

28
00:00:42.809 --> 00:00:45.111
NORTHEAST INDIANA REGIONAL 

29
00:00:45.111 --> 00:00:46.012
PARTNERSHIP SAYS THE STRATEGY 

30
00:00:46.012 --> 00:00:47.914
IS TO CREATE A SOFT LANDING 

31
00:00:47.914 --> 00:00:48.548
PLACE FOR EARLY MED TECH 

32
00:00:48.548 --> 00:00:50.250
COMPANIES BY USING TOOLS 

33
00:00:50.250 --> 00:00:52.252
ALREADY AT CENTER MEDICAL 

34
00:00:52.252 --> 00:00:53.086
TEAMS TO SEE IF A PRODUCT 

35
00:00:53.086 --> 00:00:56.222
MEETS A CLINICAL NEED 

36
00:00:56.222 --> 00:00:57.957
RESEARCHERS TO TEST IT HEALTH 

37
00:00:57.957 --> 00:00:58.591
INFORMATICS TEAM TO HELP 

38
00:00:58.591 --> 00:01:01.094
DESIGN IT 

39
00:01:01.094 --> 00:01:01.795
>> WE JUST HAVE A LOWER THE 

40
00:01:01.795 --> 00:01:04.497
BARRIER FOR THEM TO LAND IN 

41
00:01:04.497 --> 00:01:09.402
INDIANA THE SHOULD SUPPORT YOU 

42
00:01:09.402 --> 00:01:10.136
CAN THEY GET NOT A LITTLE 

43
00:01:10.136 --> 00:01:13.506
FUNDING THROUGH THE IDC IF 

44
00:01:13.506 --> 00:01:14.441
THEY DO ESTABLISH A 

45
00:01:14.441 --> 00:01:16.643
HEADQUARTERS IN INDIANA THAT 

46
00:01:16.643 --> 00:01:18.511
WILL BE A LOT EASIER BEEN SO 

47
00:01:18.511 --> 00:01:19.279
THAT WE STRUGGLE WITH THAT THE 

48
00:01:19.279 --> 00:01:22.148
PAST WHAT WE TRIED TO HELP GET 

49
00:01:22.148 --> 00:01:22.782
FUNDING FOR INTERNATIONAL 

50
00:01:22.782 --> 00:01:25.118
COMPANIES BUT THE IT'S BEEN 

51
00:01:25.118 --> 00:01:26.486
HISTORICALLY A BARRIER BUT I 

52
00:01:26.486 --> 00:01:29.189
THINK THAT NOW WE HAVE A A 

53
00:01:29.189 --> 00:01:30.223
CLEAR LINE OF SIGHT OF 

54
00:01:30.223 --> 00:01:32.258
INDICATION OF THE STATE TO 

55
00:01:32.258 --> 00:01:34.594
HELP MORE THAT BARRIER 

56
00:01:34.594 --> 00:01:36.896
>> THE FORT WAYNE REGION IS 

57
00:01:36.896 --> 00:01:37.630
ALREADY A SWEET SPOT IN THE 

58
00:01:37.630 --> 00:01:39.599
STATE FROM ED TECH WITH 100 

59
00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:40.233
PLUS MEDICAL DEVICE AND 

60
00:01:40.233 --> 00:01:41.768

PRODUCE UNIVERSITY CIVIL 

66
00:01:51.244 --> 00:01:52.345
ENGINEERS HAVE STUDY RESULTS 

67
00:01:52.345 --> 00:01:53.513
THAT MAY MAKE YOU WANT TO OUT 

68
00:01:53.513 --> 00:01:56.483
THAT SCENTED CANDLE THE 

69
00:01:56.483 --> 00:01:57.617
BOILERMAKERS ARE THE FIRST TO 

70
00:01:57.617 --> 00:01:58.718
STUDY HOW FRAGRANCE PRODUCTS 

71
00:01:58.718 --> 00:02:00.620
LIKE WAX MELTS ESSENTIAL OIL 

72
00:02:00.620 --> 00:02:01.955
DIFFUSERS AND OTHER AIR 

73
00:02:01.955 --> 00:02:02.789
FRESHENERS POLLUTE HOME AIR 

74
00:02:02.789 --> 00:02:05.291
QUALITY THE RESEARCH TOOK 

75
00:02:05.291 --> 00:02:06.493
PLACE INSIDE PRODUCE TINY 

76
00:02:06.493 --> 00:02:08.995
HOUSE LAB A FIRST OF ITS KIND 

77
00:02:08.995 --> 00:02:09.963
LAB THAT SIMULATES A HOME 

78
00:02:09.963 --> 00:02:13.533
ENVIRONMENT THE TEAM FOUND THE 

79
00:02:13.533 --> 00:02:14.267
SENATE PRODUCTS FILLED THE AIR 

80
00:02:14.267 --> 00:02:15.435
WITH MICROSCOPIC PARTICLES 

81
00:02:15.435 --> 00:02:16.669
THAT ARE SMALL ENOUGH TO GET 

82
00:02:16.669 --> 00:02:18.238
DEEP INTO THE LUNGS AND SPREAD 

83
00:02:18.238 --> 00:02:21.741
TO OTHER ORGANS 

84
00:02:21.741 --> 00:02:23.042
>> THE CONCENTRATIONS OF METAL 

85
00:02:23.042 --> 00:02:25.044
PARTICLES THAT ARE BEING WHEN 

86
00:02:25.044 --> 00:02:25.645
THE STEERING USE OF THE 

87
00:02:25.645 --> 00:02:26.946
SCENTED PRODUCTS IS VERY HIGH 

88
00:02:26.946 --> 00:02:31.117
IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT 

89
00:02:31.117 --> 00:02:31.718
UNDERSTAND AND FURTHER 

90
00:02:31.718 --> 00:02:33.186
INVESTIGATE WATCH NEGATIVE 

91
00:02:33.186 --> 00:02:35.922
HEALTH EFFECTS THESE PARTICLES 

92
00:02:35.922 --> 00:02:39.058
CAN CAUSE 

93
00:02:39.058 --> 00:02:40.126
>> PURDUE'S AT TINY HOUSE LAB 

94
00:02:40.126 --> 00:02:41.261
HAS HIGH-TECH SENSORS THAT 

95
00:02:41.261 --> 00:02:42.562
MEASURE THESE NEW PARTICLES 

96
00:02:42.562 --> 00:02:44.531
CREATED BY SENATE PRODUCTS 

97
00:02:44.531 --> 00:02:45.932
MORE STUDIES ARE NEEDED TO 

98
00:02:45.932 --> 00:02:47.800
EVALUATE THE HEALTH RISK BACK 

99
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:49.903
TO THAT FIRST STORY KYLIE THAT 

100
00:02:49.903 --> 00:02:51.971
MIDTECH EFFORT WE THINK OF 

101
00:02:51.971 --> 00:02:54.774
WORSE ON NORTHEAST THINK OF 

102
00:02:54.774 --> 00:02:55.842
MEDICAL ORTHOPEDICS BUT THIS 

103
00:02:55.842 --> 00:02:57.777
INITIATIVE IS ABOUT MORE THAN 

104
00:02:57.777 --> 00:02:58.378
ORTHOPEDIC RIGHT I MEAN 

105
00:02:58.378 --> 00:02:59.112
ORTHOPEDICS IS THE FIRST THING 

106
00:02:59.112 --> 00:02:59.979
THAT COMES TO MIND BUT FORT 

107
00:02:59.979 --> 00:03:01.481
WAYNE MEDALS IS THERE IT IS 

108
00:03:01.481 --> 00:03:02.148
THE LARGEST PRODUCER OF 

109
00:03:02.148 --> 00:03:05.118
MEDICAL GRADE WIRE IN THE 

110
00:03:05.118 --> 00:03:07.020
THESE ARE WIRES THAT GO INTO 

111
00:03:07.020 --> 00:03:09.088
STENTS AND PACEMAKERS GOT A 

112
00:03:09.088 --> 00:03:10.123
LONG LEGACY THERE SO IT GOES 

113
00:03:10.123 --> 00:03:12.959
FAR BEYOND ORTHOPEDICS AND 

114
00:03:12.959 --> 00:03:13.993
FORT WAYNE THAT JUST ONE 

115
00:03:13.993 --> 00:03:14.661
EXAMPLE THAT'S GREAT FOR AS 

116
00:03:14.661 --> 00:03:15.144
ONE OF GREAT NORTH APR GREAT
