1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,880 Speaker 1: We got this year's dice and winner for New Zealand, 2 00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 1: Jack Puw behind a medical multi tool called cap Snap, 3 00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:08,480 Speaker 1: aims to protect healthcare workers from injury medical waste. He's 4 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:10,880 Speaker 1: taken out the New Zealand version of the James Diceon Award. 5 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 1: He's been named as a finalist in the Global Top twenty, 6 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,319 Speaker 1: which is super exciting. Jack, Morning, morning, Mike. Are you 7 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: an inventor? Is that what you do or not? Really? Ah? What? 8 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 2: In a definition of the sense, you could say, what's. 9 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: That I should have? I should I've done this all wrong? 10 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 1: What's it look like to start with? Giving or on radio? 11 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 2: Ah? So cap snap very simply, you can imagine it 12 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 2: as a cross between a bottle and a craft knife, 13 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 2: right if you're trying to visualize what it looks like. 14 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: And what are you trying to do with a vial? 15 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 1: Are you trying to stop it being broken or are 16 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: you stopping me getting cut? 17 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 2: So the vials that have to be snapped in half 18 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 2: in order to get the medicationing out, you have to 19 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: break those open. There's no avoiding vamp. But this tool 20 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 2: hopes to help do that without cutting yourself in the process. 21 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: Okay, And if I need to get a cap off something. 22 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: That tool does the same thing as well. So it's 23 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: a two in one. 24 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a two for one works just like a 25 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 2: bottle of no It scept that can adjust to different 26 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 2: sizes because the medical crimpsile vials come across and a 27 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 2: range of sizes from Betty Betty too pretty big. 28 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 1: Is it constructively or industrially complex? 29 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: No, So the hope is to get it as easy 30 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 2: and mechanically simple as possible. That way, it's cheaper and 31 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 2: easier to make. 32 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: Wow. And does it work every time? 33 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 2: It's a fool proof, so it's not completely full proof, 34 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 2: but we're trying to work to get the fails is 35 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 2: down as much as possible with those caps. But the 36 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 2: vile side of things is pretty pretty consistent. 37 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: And how did you go from the eye Because I 38 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: get the idea, you think, right, I need something to 39 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: be able to solve this problem. I get that part. 40 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: How difficult was it to one design and to get 41 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: somebody to make it well? 42 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 2: The design process, you know, there was an ups and downs, 43 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 2: But ultimately working through the steps with the clinicians who 44 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 2: are having the problem, where would it come to something 45 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 2: with not too much trouble in the end. 46 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 1: If you win this, do you get to monetize it 47 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: and the ticket or you don't know, or if you 48 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: don't care, or you do it now? 49 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: Rich the James Dyson A would they if I were 50 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 2: to take out sort of the top spot, they would 51 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 2: put forward a big amount of money to sort of 52 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: inject into the project in the hope that it would 53 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 2: assist with the commercialization process. 54 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: That's fantastic. You got a dice in vacuum. 55 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 2: I don't split apart my budget at the moment. 56 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: We'll see when you win the big prize, you can 57 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,119 Speaker 1: get yourself a dice in vacuum and you can put 58 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: this out on your dream of commercializing in that. 59 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 2: Sense, I would really like to get it into Clension's 60 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 2: hands so it can actually help them actually solve the problem. 61 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: Fantastic. 62 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: I think that'd be great. 63 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, good on you.
