Episode #352 - Invention Born From Adversity: One Man’s Journey Through Innovation - with Robert Simpson

Hi there and welcome back to another edition of ScaleUp Radio, the podcast inspired by the Entrepreneurial ScaleUp System and designed to make navigating our ScaleUp journeys that little bit easier by learning from others' experiences. I’m Kevin Brent and this week on the show
I’m joined by   Robert Simpson, the resilient founder of RDS Innovations. From a car phone installer to an ingenious inventor, Robert's journey is nothing short of inspiring. After a life-changing accident, a crime show sparked his first invention, leading him down the path of patents and intellectual property protection. Facing challenges like funding shortages and regulatory hurdles, Robert's perseverance shines through. We'll dive into his innovative creation of forensic door alarms, designed to enhance safety for domestic violence victims, and his collaboration with Innovate UK to bring these vital products to market.
