At P&G Ventures, we are looking to take the best of entrepreneurs and the best of P&G to solve some of our consumers' biggest problems," said Leigh Radford, Vice President and General Manager of P&G Ventures.

The solid business model, proposed technology solution and team at Morari Medical were factors that led to selecting Morari Medical as the winner of the Innovation Challenge."

"Premature ejaculation is a true medical condition that impacts millions of men worldwide. At Morari, we believe that a device-based solution could restore confidence in sexual health for those impacted by premature ejaculation," said Jeff Bennett, CEO and Founder of Morari. "We appreciate P&G Ventures providing a forum to discuss male health issues and are honored to have received the inaugural P&G Ventures Innovation Challenge award."
