Nanoflex awarded the Swiss Accelerator and a second Innosuisse grant with UK-based Brainomix

Reaffirming the team’s commitment to bringing life-saving procedures to more people through innovative remote robotic solutions, the Wyss Zurich project Nanoflex and its startup secures a second grant from Innosuisse, Switzerland’s Innovation Agency this year.

Funding from the Swiss Accelerator Grant will be used to further
develop Nanoflex Robotics’ remote magnetic navigation system and
ultra-flexible guidewires for its first target application – treating
acute ischemic stroke.

“Time is critical when it comes to
treating stroke patients. Every delay in removing a blood clot reduces
the chance of post-stroke functional independence. By enabling increased
and earlier access to mechanical thrombectomies through our remote
robotics platform, we hope to give more people a greater chance to live
independent lives after stroke,” said Christophe Chautems, Chief
Technology Officer, Nanoflex Robotics.
