The critical issues of sealing and securing endografts employed in minimally invasive AAA repairs—particularly in complex procedures—are addressed by endoron technology for the endovascular repair of AAAs.
“Sofinnova Partners are the go-to investors within medtech. They bring a wealth of operational experience working with high-growth companies like ours,” said Ronit Harpaz, co-founder and CEO of Endoron. “With their continued support, I am confident we will reach key clinical and regulatory milestones as we advance our EndoStapling technology towards the clinic. The EIC’s participation further solidifies our commitment to bringing this innovative solution to the European market.” By avoiding long-term migration and endoleaks, Endoron’s sophisticated stapling mechanism completely seals endografts while firmly attaching them, minimising the need for highly invasive, high-mortality open operations. Endoron medical is happy to have received the EIC grant. The European Commission created the European Innovation Council in 2021 with the goal of identifying, developing, and expanding disruptive innovation and game-changing technology.About Endoron Medical
