Insulet

Insulet wants to isolate an insolent disease. The medical device company manufactures an insulin pump for people with insulin-dependent diabetes. Its disposable, waterproof product, called the OmniPod Insulin Management System, weighs a mere 1.2 ounces and adheres directly to the patient's skin, making it more discrete than most insulin infusion systems that typically clip to a belt or fit in a pocket. It also includes a handheld device to wirelessly program the OmniPod with insulin delivery instructions. The company sells the OmniPod system to customers both directly and through its distribution partners.
