Fellows Launch Wadsworth Medical Technologies

Sloan Fellows Jim Mills and Andrew Fox (Class of 2005) have officially "launched" their new startup: Wadsworth Medical Technologies (WMT).

WMT was also an entrant in the well recognized MIT $50k competition and made it all the way to the finals.

Wondering where the name came from?

Andy Fox: "About a month ago, I dropped Jim off at Sloan after a meeting in downton Boston. We were discussing company names and I looked up at the street sign and asked Jim what he thought of Wadsworth Medical Devices. Bingo! We had a name. Later that evening, I realized that Wadsworth Medical Devices could be shortened to WMD -- and we decided that this would not bode well for a life sciences startup."

So, they finally settled on Wadsworth Medical Technologies (WMT). The rest, as they say, is history.
