Starting from a simple need to extend their laptop screens, Scott shares how they brainstormed, prototyped, and took their idea all the way to Shenzhen, China, to learn the ins and outs of manufacturing electronics firsthand.

    Listeners will get an inside look at the gritty reality of launching a product from scratch: living on air mattresses, navigating cultural divides in manufacturing, and figuring out product development on the fly. Scott also reveals how their Kickstarter campaign exploded, raising over AUD 430,000 and validating their idea.
