The site launched live just this month on September 5th, while simultaneously announcing partnerships with GE, Arrow Electronics and others.
The company was co-founded by CEO Scott N. Miller and President Herman Pang. The two saw an opportunity to bridge the gap with entrepreneurs who have a functional prototype to high volume production. Herman acts as the Far East in country liaison leveraging his manufacturing connections to improve quality and speed to market.
