After attending DIABETES KONGRESS 2022 in Berlin 25-28 May and visiting first potential KOL clinics, VibroSense can conclude several immediate positive opportunities.

We have an immediate and strong opportunity to move forward in the German market. More positive news is definitely to come during 2022”, says the CEO of VibroSense, Hans Wallin.
