Podcast: Getting Personal With De Oro Devices’ Sidney Collin – ‘There’s A Lot Of Learning That Needs To Happen’

“There was this insecurity around inexperience that I had to learn to be comfortable with. But the way that I’ve been able to overcome that challenge is partially through relying on advisors and hiring people who have much more experience than I do in any particular space.” – Sidney Collin

In this new series titled Getting Personal, we talk to new and veteran executives about the trials and tribulations in running a company while exploring their own motivations and passions. In this first edition, we talk to Sidney Collin, co-founder and CEO of De Oro Devices. Collin invented NexStride, a portable device to help overcome freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease patients, while studying biomedical engineering at the California Polytechnic State University in 2018.
