InQB8 Medical Technologies is a medical device incubator and the second collaboration between Dr. Arshad Quadri, MD and J. Brent Ratz, MBA, a partnership that began 15 years ago with the co-founding of CardiAQ Valve Technologies, the world’s first trans-septal Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement (TMVR) system.  InQB8 focuses on developing new solutions for major cardiovascular diseases including Structural Heart issues, Type A Aortic Dissection and Heart Failure in HFpEF and HFmEF.  InQB8 plans to accelerate projects through prototyping, bench, and pre-clinical testing and allow these early-stage concepts to grow within inQB8 until they are ready to be acquired or advanced as separate stand-alone cardiovascular start-ups. As projects mature, new ideas and concepts will be initiated and developed within the incubator.
