Imagine a life that is totally different from the one we know today. A life where disease and medical disorders are not commonplace. A life where medical afflictions no longer claim lives. It’s a wild thought, we know. It is our utopia! Now think about this utopia in comparison to where we are at today. In 2019, roughly 58 million people died worldwide of which 74% of those deaths (or 43 million people) were the result of noncommunicable diseases like heart disease, stroke and COPD. Imagine what the world would be like if all of those people, our family, friends and colleagues, were still with us. It’s a sobering and certainly emotional thought! But how could we ever achieve such a utopian life existence? Enter Square-1 Engineering and the greater life science industry. As I write this I’ll humbly admit there will inevitably be people who read these statements and think we’re absurd or even delusional for thinking we could ever achieve a life without disease and medical disorders. That said, it would also be prudent to note the purpose of this statement is not about our company, it’s not a sales pitch or a ‘look at what we’re doing’ ploy. It’s about an unrealized opportunity we need your help with as we believe it to be our responsibility to spread the word. Our utopia is indeed possible and it will take all of us, both within the life sciences industry and outside, to work together towards a greater goal. This greater goal, which we’ve defined by Square-1’s company vision, is to achieve a life where ‘medical technology has created a new quality of life empowering people to live fearlessly’. Fearlessly! Our company, like many others, is on a quest to change the world as we know it for the better. How are we going to do this you ask? We’ll achieve this through the advancement of medical technology. Along with many other companies in the life science industry, our focus is to drive change and innovation so that we can continue to inch closure to a state in the future where the way we live as people is better than today. Hopefully without disease and medical disorder. Imagine again if all heath care afflictions were in fact eradicated. The fear many of us live with as a result of the daily health issues we struggle with would also cease to exist. Rather than harboring fear we could spend our time focused on a life filled with optimistic gratefulness. We know our ambitions are colossal, even unimaginable at times yet this is exactly what keeps us going. It’s for this reason we’ve made it our mission to put all our time and energy into advancing medical technologies to improve patient lives today so we can in the future meet our utopia, a world rid of disease and disorder. Could you live fearlessly? Join us on our mission and learn more about some of the great companies who are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in order to create a better tomorrow. A fearless tomorrow. Our utopia!
