LUXEMBOURG, April 6, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- International healthcare pioneers Naluri, Hoppe Alliance, Stemiglobal, Meracle Health, DroneSec, and Viewmind, have landed in the Luxembourg House of MedTech to accelerate their European impact. These pioneers play an active role in the digital transformation of healthcare, working closely with payers, industry & governments on personalized medicine & the transition to value-based care. The latest cohort hails from Malaysia, the United States, Slovakia, Australia, Argentina and Singapore.

As societies struggle to cope with ageing populations, demand for quality healthcare will continue to rise exponentially across the world. In fact, the medical technology market in Asia is poised to grow to about $133 billion this year, surpassing the European Union as the second-largest market globally. Yet in Asia, 80% of all MedTech is imported. Changing demographics, rising healthcare costs, shifting consumer expectations and lack of healthcare practitioners are necessitating a change in the model of care. 41 million people already die prematurely from preventable chronic illnesses every year, representing 70% of all deaths.

To address this market opportunity, Naluri has developed a digital chronic disease prevention platform proven to improve chronic physical and mental health risks more effectively than medication alone and ten times as cost-efficient and accessible.

Viewmind provides a novel digital biomarker diagnostic, which predicts with up to 98% accuracy if Mild Cognitive Impairment will eventually develop into Alzheimer's Disease, Frontotemporal Dementia or related pathologies, years before common symptoms are visible. Viewmind's digital biomarker also measures whether cognitive therapies are working or not and shows promising results in assessing the mental impact on patients suffering from Long-COVID.

Meracle Health's Whizz smart spacer helps optimize COVID, Asthma and COPD respiratory medication delivery for children and the elderly.

Stemiglobal is a MedTech platform company that helps the healthcare system save lives, reduce costs and improve patient outcomes by reducing the unnecessary time delays that cause avoidable deaths in the most time-sensitive life-threatening cases of myocardial infarction, stroke, and trauma.

Drones are increasingly used in healthcare to modernize the last mile in medical deliveries and bridge gaps in access. They serve a medical purpose by shuttling drugs, defibrillators and other equipment to emergency sites or care facilities. DroneSec provides the drone production industry with hardening and safety guidelines to ensure the proliferation of safer, more security-oriented drone operations.

Hoppe Alliance is landing "Hope Tech", a first-of-its-kind, unified SasS and Services Marketplace where B2B medical supply transactions close with agility, security, and transparency, empowering buyers and suppliers from all corners of the healthcare to complete trade ethically and effectively.
