Over the last weeks, PulmoTech was happy to assist with the development of an emergency ventilator built by students of TU Delft. OperationAIR was able to rapidly develop their ventilator, which is an enormous achievement.
Our Michigan Test Lung was made available, in combination with a custom-built module in Polybench, in order to assess if the output would meet their requirements.
Of course, we sincerely hope sufficient ventilators remain available. However, if the situation arises, it is great to see that the team of OperationAIR is able to offer a possible alternative.
We’re proud to announce we’ve been chosen to join the @Techleapnl#COVID19program as part of best thinkers and doers helping to reduce the impact of COVID-19.
The following was posted on the site of TechLeap.nl:
We launched the COVID-19 Program to empower a select group of entrepreneurs who present working solutions for the challenges posed by the current crisis. We had an amazing response from the ecosystem with an array of innovative companies submitting their applications. Today we’re proud to showcase the 8 companies joining the program where they will receive support in accelerating their expansion and time to market. The program provides assistance through our extensive network as well as insightful (online) sessions with leading experts. These Dutch startups alongside many of the others in the ecosystem can directly contribute to reducing the impact of COVID-19. It’s now time for us as Techleap.nl and the ecosystem to support them. Giving them access to the resources they need and the visibility they deserve.
