Lia Diagnostics was co-founded by Bethany Edwards and Anna Simpson, who met while completing the University of Pennsylvania's Integrated Product Design Program. Both with undergraduate degrees in artistic subjects, the two have created a Fast Company’s 2018 World Changing Ideas Award winner - the Lia pregnancy test. The Lia is a disposable, biodegradable and completely discreet pregnancy test. It’s FDA approved, over 99% accurate and set to change the world of early pregnancy diagnostics.

 

Bethany and Anna join me to discuss their journey, from concept to conception, and how thinking outside the box inspired the creativity and innovation that ultimately led to the development of the world’s first flushable pregnancy test. They share their joint belief system, their love of learning and how they influenced an industry that has remained unchanged for decades. They also explain the trials of working in manufacturing and the challenges they faced when approaching investors and funding circles.

 

 

“It’s not about perfection in the beginning.” - Bethany Edwards.
