Charmr Announced as IDEA Finalist!
by JuliaWe’re excited to announce Charmr as a finalist in the IDEA awards! Charmr is a design concept we created that shows the vision for a combined glucose pump and monitor for Type 1 Diabetics. This started in response to a challenge. Amy Tenderich, a well-known diabetes advocate, wrote an open letter to Steve Jobs on her blog. In her post she asked Jobs to apply his design expertise to “the little devices that keep us alive, the people with chronic conditions.” As part of our R&D work, we took on the challenge and created a revolutionary diabetes management system concept that has triggered an overwhelming response from the diabetes, medical device, design and now the design award communities!
