Cutting-edge technology: Medical technology
As the home of highly innovative start-ups, SMEs and global players in the field of medical technology - including many global market leaders and hidden champions such as Stryker, Schölly and Intuitive Surgical - the region around Freiburg offers plenty of development potential for companies, specialists and investors. The proximity to Tuttlingen, the "world center of medical technology", provides further added value with numerous cross-connections in the immediate vicinity.
The close cooperation between local companies and academic research as well as the transfer of knowledge and technology in the field of cutting-edge medicine quickly lead to marketable products for medical care. The existing opportunities for cooperation offer the best conditions for the development and application of new, digital products, processes and services for the global healthcare market.
