Mark Roden, co-founder of Tetra Bio Distributed (TBD). His journey has been driven by a relentless desire to solve real-world problems. Amid the pandemic’s peak, Mark pivoted from ticketing to leverage his biomedical engineering skills, collaborating with a group of passionate individuals to establish TBD. TBD’s mission: tackle health-related issues head-on. Their flagship innovation, the Tetra PAPRa, symbolizes the essence of making by delivering N100-level protection—even for those with beards. The PAPRa is a power respirator. Mark’s focus though TBD is to democratize healthcare and specifically PAPRa by making it safe and affordable.
