Challenge overview

The Seeker is looking for a bio-absorbable elastomeric film with specific properties. It could be an existing product, one that can be adapted for their use. If it does not exist, they would like to find a collaboration partner to help develop it.

This is an electronic Request-for-Partners (eRFP) Challenge; the Solver will only need to submit a written proposal to be evaluated by the Seeker with a goal of establishing a collaborative partnership. There will be a potential “Finder’s Fee” for a Solver that can recommend a suitable partner as decided by the Seeker.

The Seeker is looking for a bio-absorbable elastomeric film with specific properties that is compatible in a highly dynamic system within the human body. The thin film (50 – 100 µm) must have elastomeric properties, be biocompatible and degrade over a certain time period.

This is an electronic Request-for-Partners (eRFP) Challenge.  The Solver will write a preliminary proposal (about 2–4 pages including contact information) to be evaluated by the Seeker with a goal of establishing a collaborative partnership.  Upon completion of the evaluation, the Seeker may contact selected Solvers directly to work out terms for a collaboration contract. The monetary value of the contract will vary depending on the amount of work to be delivered and the time frame agreed upon.

(NOTE: proposals from Solvers/Teams/Companies who have the ability to work directly as the collaboration partner will be considered first. The Seeker will also consider proposals from other Solvers who refer a proper candidate as a partner for a “finder’s fee of $2,000 USD, if the Seeker is convinced the candidate is worth contacting a second time. See full description for details.)
