WAUKESHA – Whether you’re an injured soldier returning home from
war, or a 16-year-old girl hurt in a car accident, it would be nice
to know your orthopedic implant is customized to fit your own
anatomy, reducing the chances for revision surgeries down the road.
Enter James Schroeder, founder and
CEO of town of Waukesha-based Vantus Technology Corp., which will
provide personalized orthopedic solutions to patients by bridging
the gap between orthopedic surgeons and biomechanical and biomedical
engineers.
"It will match perfectly, not kind of," Schroeder said.
Schroeder is one of 20 finalists in the Wisconsin Governor’s
Business Plan Contest. He is among three contest finalists from
Waukesha County. The competition is organized by the Wisconsin
Technology Council in conjunction with its subsidiary and other
statewide affiliates. The state Department of Commerce is also
involved with the competition, in which winners will be announced in
early June.
