Bambi Medical B.V. was a legitimate Dutch MedTech startup founded in 2015 developing the 'Bambi Belt' for NICU monitoring. However, the company was declared bankrupt in January 2024. The submission contains significant inaccuracies, including a claim that 'most people have used my product' (false for a specialized medical device), a team size of 125 (actual was ~15-20), and revenue/market cap confusion. While the technology had real-world utility and initial innovation, the project has failed commercially, and the submission quality is critically low.
