]]> This coming week we’ll be interviewing Scott Miller, founder of Dragon Innovation.

 

“Well I’ve never heard of that company!”, you say. Well, that might be the case, but you’ve almost surely heard of their clients. Dragon Innovation is a company dedicated to getting products designed and made, both in the US and China, often for smaller companies that need assistance in scaling their manufacturing.

 

Who are these companies you might have heard of? Let’s see:

 

As if that weren’t enough, Scott’s pedigree comes from bringing the Roomba to market while at iRobot (of which more than 5 million units have been sold!).

 

Scott is very obviously on the leading edge of where consumer level hardware is headed these days, especially for startups. We can’t wait to talk with him!

 

But, like always, we want to get your questions as well! Leave them over at a page dedicated to asking Scott questions on our subreddit.
