Supporting Tech23 winner 2Mar Robotics
One of the most inspiring pitches delivered at this year's Tech23 startup event in Sydney on 29 October was from Marita Cheng, the dynamic and inspiring founder of 2Mar Robotics, which designs and manufactures a voice and iPhone-controlled robot arm for people with spinal cord injuries, muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, cerebral palsy and Parkinson's.
This 2012 Young Australian of the Year has made amazing progress on delivering her vision for a simple, cheap and effective prosthetic limb in the short time since establishing her venture in April 2013 and for the progress she's made we awarded her our Best Growth Hacking and Bootstrapping Prize to the value of $4,888.
Supporting the efforts of determined, talented startup founders is what we do. Good on you, Marita!
