Everything starts with a dream—but Jeremy really shows us how to get started on making these dreams come to life. Generalities won’t get it done; it requires very specific charting and execution. Just as Jeremy navigated his way across oceans, he’s also shown us how we can better navigate life’s personal and professional challenges. I’m giving my daughters copies of his book, and I hope they get as much out of Jeremy’s insights as I did.”

I understand you also has a nursing background which I am sure is quite helpful for your role at Medela.
I didn’t realize that Medela had products beyond the Breast Feeding range. Tell me a little bit about your Healthcare division.
How does Medela help these patients with their diabetic ulcers?
So NPWT helps these patients’ wounds heal more quickly? What’s different about your product?
So to clarify, you have a product which provides the reliability of normal NPWT but yet provides the convenience of a personal device?
Let`s get into the details of your portfolio again - you offer a "classical" re-usable pump as well, correct?
Sounds all quite practical to me. Here comes to my mind: if everything is so easy… can I change the wound dressing on my own as a patient?
Are there really synergies between the Human Milk and the Healthcare segment?
