The National Capital Consortium for Pediatric Device Innovation (NCC-PDI) serves as a critical device development resource by providing expert advice, support services, and fund management of pediatric device innovation. We bring together individuals and institutions that can support pediatric medical device progression through all stages of development – ideation, concept formation, prototyping, preclinical, clinical, manufacturing, marketing, and commercialization.
To achieve these aims, NCC-PDI has six functional cores to support the total pediatric devices product life cycle:
