Larry Kiliszewski

Larry Kiliszewski has 33 years of experience in the product development industry. For the last 28, he has been involved in the development of medical devices, ranging from class I adhesive products to class II invasive systems. In this time, he has managed the delivery of over 100,000 hours of services related to device development through sister company Zewski Corporation for over 200 clients.  This experience has allowed him to gather a wealth of information on the process, players, risks, costs and roadblocks. For some time, he has shared his experience through talks and mentorships at institutions, but today through The Zewski Reports, he is unlocking this information to individual inventors, students and educators, in order to provide them with roadmaps to the development of their ideas.
