Following the completion of the survey of the German market, VibroSense will begin the next step in establishing sales in Germany. The plan includes introducing the company's product VibroSense Meter II at selected reference clinics.
Germany is an important export market that is expected to be very valuable in the long term for the Diabetes Foot Screening application. As part of the establishment, VibroSense will participate in Germany's largest diabetes conference, Diabetes Congress 2022, in Berlin on 25-28 May this year.
The step into Germany has been preceded by preparatory work where more than 160 diabetes clinics have been contacted and they will be further processed during the spring and summer.
“The German market means a new great opportunity for VibroSense. We have carried out thorough analysis and have a clear picture of the structure of the German diabetes market and its actors. Germany is one of Europe's largest markets and this will be the start of a long-term investment by VibroSense,” says Hans Wallin, CEO of VibroSense Dynamics AB.
