Kia ora Andrew
I can follow up with Mia. Will be an interesting conversation given they came under scrutiny a couple of years ago
when trying to raise money and see how they have been tracking since then and key objectives to moving forward.

Hi Andrew
Bit of feedback for you following Monday's conversation.
Not sure what has happened with the Info process - rang Mia, being the contact and she let me know the GM is
meeting with Tony V so potentially didn't need to follow up on this one. However, being naturally inquisitive I spoke
with the GM and had a really good intro discussion re clinical trials etc which I am not sure Tony V would know too
much about and have forwarded him the link to HealthTech Activator. He thinks he will most likely meet with me post
talking with Tony. Interestingly he was on yesterday's funding webinar so recognised my name.
Long story short feeling rather frustrated with the new process - having said that not sure what the answer is, apart
from Learn as we go.
Nga mihi
Mark
