Simplicity - Transparency - Efficiency

Our philosophy is determined by what we have learned from Life; not only in the sense that a part of our business deals with Life Science issues but also whith respect to the message from Evolution. Simple, flexible, competitive and efficient organisms most often have a longer persistence then highly specialized but overcomplicated creatures.

Already by visiting our website you may have noticed that simplicity is our most striking quality. Moreover, once you have started to discuss with us you will notice that simplicity characterizes our business approach: we adapt our tools to your needs, don't complicate things (and increase costs) by redundant approaches, provide you clear information and don't hide behind the esoteric fume of the classical project development scene.

From this point of view, transparency is the logic consequence of simplicity. Our offers, reports, documents, bills and so on are as open and precise as possible. Long-term projects (like e. g. market introduction) contain go/no-go options at each milestone. Your decision will be based on clear and detailed reports concerning each step of the project.

The result of this approach is efficiency. We believe that besides simplicity and transparency, setting priorities, making and maintaining decisions are key determinants of efficiency. This means for you that when working with us, you will save time and money by our straightforward approach.

http://www.bbt.admin.ch/kti/gebiet/life/medtech/e/
The path from laboratory to patient is also strewn with obstacles. Procedures and trials required for product approval are long and complicated, and small companies with limited resources might find it difficult to cope.

KTI/CTI MedTech lends a helping hand: This initiative, planned for the 2000 - 2003 period after a preliminary two-year introductory stage, sees itself as an information platform and hub that links interested economic and scientific partners through working groups and joint projects. The immediate or short-term goal is to improve products and production processes. The longer term objective is to integrate new technologies with the products, thus obtaining the optimal advantage in the global competitive market. A significant aspect is that the project creates new and highly qualified jobs.

KTI/CTIMedTech promotes communication and exchange between the traditional academic institutions, the Universities of Applied Sciences, and the relevant companies, inviting the latter to combine their specialist internal expertise with outside know-how in an attempt to generate original product ideas. To this end, MedTech specialists provide the companies with their services as neutral facilitators, if necessary backing them in word and deed from product idea to market launch.
