 We are A4 Innovation Group, also known as Melissa, Ty, Ryan and Aditya. We wanted to help develop a solution to the ventilator shortage in this time of Covid-19. We have developed a ventilator that is low cost, has variable settings to be patient specific, and is compact to be portable. It is a solution that does not rely on an Ambu bag, which is limited in hospitals and can damage someone's lung due to the pressure it releases. We have now submitted our solution into the FDA and are looking forward to working through the approval processes. We are hoping to use this as our platform to get traction for the FDA approval process. We are working with investors, but any donations at this time will go towards our initial startup investments, such as our next ventilator or machines we may need for manufacturing.
