M.D. Mateusz Dworak 🇵🇱🇪🇺's and Martyna Jakubowska's journey to create a transformative medical device - AutoCast - for diabetic wound care has been challenging. 🔴 Securing funding was one of the biggest hurdles; without proper capital, it was difficult to attract skilled team members. And meeting EU regulatory standards required specific knowledge they initially didn’t have. 🟢 EIT Health's support helped Mateusz and Martyna rise to these challenges. With the support of our mentors, they gained essential knowledge in navigating complex European health regulations and connected with partners to validate their healthcare solution across multiple markets. 🚀 This support has helped further develop the AutoCast system, offering a unique combination of innovation, effectiveness, and patient-centered design.
