KB Medical Wins Venture 2012 Award
Awards ceremony at ETH Zurich

Congratulations to the team of KB Medical, a new Co-Me start-up at EPF Lausanne: Out of 191 submissions, their company was selected by the Jury of the Swiss Start-up competition Venture 2012 as one of the ten winners of the award Best Business Idea. The awards ceremony was held at ETH Zurich in the presence of Peter Brabeck, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Nestlé. KB Medical has also won an award of CHF 20'000 presented by the foundation Dr. René Liechti in Nyon. The goal of both competitions is the support of young entrepreneurs in founding start-up companies.

The team of KB Medical has specialized know-how in the development of cutting-edge medical devices for robot-assisted operations. With the development of the Neuroglide, a high-precision surgery robot for spinal screw placements, both operation risks and recuperation time are cut significantly.
