The Connection
Stephen and Tim met as children growing up in the same area and became lifelong friends.
Naturally, life saw them go their own ways with Tim working in the IT sector until moving into NHS supply and Stephen working in the property sector eventually running his own property investment business and becoming a Fellow of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.
When Tim had the science of the Pouch secured, he approached Stephen along with Andy Park Hustwood’s MD and their team to use their commercial acumen to really drive the project forward which accelerated the process and in 2019 the testing and certification for the pouch was finalised.
In 2020 the CE Marking was achieved, and the patent granted in April 2021.
