Hygeia's first German foray, named Hygeia Medical Instruments, was necessary to help us to garner the support of several small players in the field who where more comfortable to deal with a local, when licensing their technology and intellectual property to us. Especially when it came to us planning to improve on their existing items and procedures. The venture has since been renamed into Hygeia Medizintechnik and is the representative office of the Hygeia Group on the continent.
Then Corona happened and suddenly it was Hygeia who had access to protective gear, in-vitro tests, etc. which Germany needed so badly. We teamed up with a local distributor who named themselves Hygeia Medizinvertrieb
In the meantime Hygeia Medizintechnik has also become a supplier of components to medical manufacturing companies in Germany and offers marketing and regulatory consulting services to Asian manufacturers who seek access to the EU and to European companies wanting to enter the ASEAN region.
