Welcome to the AIM Portal

PBC Biomed’s extensive industry expertise has made us the trusted strategic partner for small and large companies, physicians, universities and government-funded projects to advance the development of life-changing medical technologies. We have a track record of supporting innovators in taking an idea through the development process to bring their concept to life.

Concept Refinement

At PBC Biomed, we turn ideas into clear, viable concepts that solve real-world clinical challenges. Guided by our Clinical Advisory Boards, we assess clinical needs, evaluate business potential, and identify critical technical, regulatory, and market factors to ensure that your innovation is set on the right path.

Technology Validation

Proving that a concept works as intended is a critical step in the journey from idea to commercialization. We can help to protect your idea, develop a prototype, and then design for manufacture. We ensure that your idea is not only technically feasible, but also meets safety, performance, and regulatory expectations.

Technology Optimization

Once a concept has been validated, the next step is to optimize the technology to ensure it is safe, effective, scalable, and commercially viable. We help innovators refine their devices by addressing technical challenges, enhancing performance, and preparing for large-scale development and regulatory submission.

Commercial Development

By developing a comprehensive commercialization strategy, we help to position your new technology effectively within the marketplace. We utilize our global industry network to find the right distribution partner, as well as our relationships with key clinical institutions to develop ‘early adopters’.

How Does it Work?

To accelerate your idea to market, here is an overview of the process for submitting your innovation to PBC Biomed for evaluation through the AIM Portal:

  1. Clinical Needs Assessment Submission

    We ask you to provide an overview of your idea and identify where it fits in the current or future standards of care. Without disclosing your IP, please complete the questions in the Clinical Needs Assessment Submission below.

  2. Patient and Client Fit Assessment

    Our team at PBC Biomed will assess your project to ensure patient and client fit. If your project is approved, the process will continue.

  3. Sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement

    In order to protect us and your idea, it is important to sign an NDA to ensure IP protection for both parties.

  4. Submit Project Details and Needs

    We provide an upload tool for you to share key documents that will help us better assess your idea or development progress, such as images, publications, models, or testing files. Any document uploaded will remain strictly confidential to the PBC Review Board.

  5. Prepare Initial Partnership Proposal

    A PBC Biomed representative will contact you with an initial partnership proposal to advance your innovation.
