A look back at the 3rd edition of Innovation Days!

Launched in 2021 at the initiative of our Innovation Department, Innovation Days 2023 brought together global experts from June 7 to 9 to imagine tomorrow’s wound care.

In collaboration with Michelin Inflatable Solutions – Healthcare & Emergency, CEA (Commissariat pour l’Energie Atomique), and our Healico team, they worked on the future of wound care to better heal patients.

Often underestimated, or even unrecognised by patients, diabetic foot ulcer is one of the most common, costly and severe complications of diabetes. That’s why prevention and education are key to avoid ulcers and in the worst cases, amputation.

In line with World Diabetes Day 2022 topic, “Education to protect tomorrow”, Urgo Medical seized the opportunity to highlight the savefeetsavelives.com website.

Supported by D-Foot International, the website features content and stories to improve access to diabetes education: the more we know about diabetes, the more we can improve patients’ lives and care.
