Kumovis
The founders of Kumovis GmbH have set themselves the goal of enabling the additive production of plastic implants and are developing innovative 3D printers specifically for medical products. Kumovis focuses on the processing of high-performance polymers, which are already established in medical technology. With the Kumovis system these plastics can be processed individually, decentrally and with a high degree of design freedom. Through the integration of a unique air circuit including filter units, the technology enables a clean room environment within the build chamber. The contamination of the component with foreign particles can be avoided. As a result, the Kumovis printer can produce products such as implants cost-effectively and at the same time patient-individualized.
Lindis Blood Care
Lindis Blood Care is developing a medical device to be used in oncology for the operation of tumours in order to open up the possibility of self-blood administration of blood collected during the operation. The product consists of a combination of an antibody and filter and serves to remove cancer cells from the blood.
Mecuris
Mecuris enables the individual and custom-made production of orthopaedic aids by means of an intuitive web-based platform and subsequent manufacturing using 3D printing. This includes orthoses (e.g. for stabilising the cervical spine) and prostheses (e.g. artificial limbs), as well as equipment such as covers for below-knee prostheses. Mecuris not only provides orthopaedic clinics and medical supply stores with its innovative platform, but also with a full service package right up to delivery of the manufactured products. Design data is adjusted to a patient’s anatomy in an automated fashion based on digital patient data (CT, scanning, photos).
mediaire
mediaire GmbH was founded in 2018 in Berlin by experienced MRT and AI experts in order to support radiologists with innovative software solutions for the automatic diagnosis of MRT images. mediaire's solutions can be fully integrated into the internal IT infrastructure of radiology centers to ensure a smooth workflow and the highest possible protection of sensitive patient data. The first product md.Brain, which can be used for early detection and follow-up of neurodegenerative diseases, is already certified as a medical device and is therefore available for immediate use. Among the co-founders are two medical physicists with expertise in MRI and CI (Dr. Andreas Lemke and Dr. Jörg Döpfert), as well as two experienced scientists and specialists in radiology (Prof. Dr. med. Henrik Michaely and Prof. Dr. med. Michael Fenchel).

multiBIND develops innovative solutions for molecular biology, healthcare and agriculture. bioDECONT® and bioCLEAN represent biocompatible disinfection and decontamination in laboratories, hospitals and agriculture.
NovaPump
NovaPump GmbH is developing and realising a leading solution for a novel right ventricular assist device (RVAD) with clear USPs (the only percutaneous device with pulsatile support).
NovaPump’s catheter-based heart pump PERKAT™ can be implanted within minutes in acute situations involving acute right heart failure, cardiogenic shock or acute right heart insufficiency and offers highly efficient pulsatile heart support in combination with the existing IABP (Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump) technology as a drive.
A perspective application of PERKAT™ as a bi-ventricular assist device (bi-VAD) is also planned for the near future.
Pentracor
Pentracor produces a CE approved device for the therapeutic, extracorporeal removal of CRP from blood plasma of patients with acute myocardial infarction in order to decrease long-term damage. The clinical trial provides with excellent interim results.
Photonics Healthcare
Photonics Healthcare enables doctors to monitor cellular oxygen.
Purenum
Purenum is a spin-off of the Fraunhofer-IFAM and develops biocompatible adhesives for medical use. As part of a BMBF project (GO-Bio 6 "mediNiK"), an adhesive was developed that can be used to glue together and remove previously ungrippable kidney stone fragments after lithotripsy. In addition to work on the certification of the kidney stone adhesive, Purenum is also developing adhesives for other medical indications.
Reactive Robotics
Reactive Robotics develops adaptive and intelligent therapy robotics which automate early-mobilization in the intensive care unit. Using robotic modules that can be attached and detached on and from the patient bed, patients can be mobilized directly in their hospital bed. As compared to existing solutions, this approach supersedes the time-intensive and dangerous transfer of the patient onto a separate therapy device. The device is scheduled to become available in Europe beginning of 2018.

Synoste
Synoste targets a disruptive change to the treatment and management of patients with bone deformities
Vacis
VACIS is the leading tissue engineering company for body-own blood vessels.
The company develops in situ tissue engineered blood vessels providing novel therapeutic options for vascular surgery. Prosthetic vascular graft failure is a frequent complication in vascular surgery with substantial morbidity and health care costs. VACIS provides patients autologous graft vessels, with sustained patency and fewer complications requiring less corrective interventions.
Vascular grafts are needed in many areas of medicine. VACIS initially focuses on vascular access in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Other indications will follow after clinical validation of the technology in hemodialysis. Such other indications include peripheral arterial occlusive disease.
VACIS provides an advantage over other therapeutic options in the hemodialysis access market. Current solutions have a low patency: many arteriovascular fistulas fail to mature or no adequate vein is available; the foreign material in synthetic grafts lead to infection, stenosis, thrombosis etc. and the synthetic material does not heal after cannulation.
WISE
WISE Srl is a Milan- and Berlin-based company developing genuinely novel and minimally-invasive implantable leads for Neuromodulation and Neuromonitoring: highly conformable, stretchable, unbreakable and cheaper to produce.
