Since then, we have brainstormed quite a lot on her goal on improving the Operating Room efficiency. I’ve seen CLARA from a very early idea forming stages to maturing towards a pilot. Prior to making a decision, to bolster my understanding of their capability, I’ve met Melinda and her team a couple of times over the last 3 years - I know what they are building and how the space is overall. Looking at Melinda’s background as Nurse manager and her dedication towards her mission, I truly believe CLARA could be a big success."}],"relationships":[{"source_entity_id":"wefunder:company:181051","relation":"has_team_member","target_entity_id":"wefunder:user:4760778","target_url":"https://wefunder.com/melinda.yormick"},{"source_entity_id":"wefunder:company:181051","relation":"has_team_member","target_entity_id":"wefunder:user:4790775","target_url":"https://wefunder.com/aaron.cooke"},{"source_entity_id":"wefunder:company:181051","relation":"has_team_member","target_entity_id":"wefunder:user:4790802","target_url":"https://wefunder.com/sireesha.panchagnula"},{"source_entity_id":"wefunder:company:181051","relation":"has_team_member","target_entity_id":"wefunder:company_role:5723325"},{"source_entity_id":"wefunder:company:181051","relation":"has_team_member","target_entity_id":"wefunder:company_role:5723330"},{"source_entity_id":"wefunder:company:181051","relation":"has_team_member","target_entity_id":"wefunder:company_role:5723337"},{"source_entity_id":"wefunder:company:181051","relation":"has_featured_investor","target_entity_id":"wefunder:user:4794965","target_url":"https://wefunder.com/shubham.gupta.8"},{"source_entity_id":"wefunder:company:181051","relation":"has_latest_fundraise","target_entity_id":"wefunder:fundraise:141225"}],"faq":[{"question":"Have you filed your form C yet?","answer":"Yes - form C has been filed."},{"question":"What is the exit plan (acquisition, IPO, merger, etc.) in which investors will be able to see a ROI?","answer":"Thanks for the question.

The platform has been difficult for a number of my investors. I decided to leave the campaign up to see if we would receive investment organically - but to your point - I had disengaged as it was difficult for the first time users I was working with.
