Making Things That Matter | Kipp Kitts

Kipp Bradford of KippKItts:

Our motto “Make Things That Matter” comes from Tim O’Reilly. At Maker Faire New York, September 2011, we showed off the KippCool. One of the primary applications is medical cooling for heart attack and stroke victims. It was no accident that we found this application. A series of conversations I had with an official from the Robert Wood Johnson Medical Foundation at Health FOO, and O’Reilly organized health conference, set me on the path towards medical cooling, and I never looked back. When Tim awarded us an Editor’s Choice Blue Ribbon that said “Making Things That Matter” on the back, I realized that found the purpose and meaning in my life. From these humble beginnings, I will make sure one thing never changes. This business is all about being meaningful to our community and ourselves. We make things that we care about, things that solve our problems, and we hope you also find our products bring simplicity and meaning to your lives.
