Last week, we participated in the CEE To UK Soft-Landing Tour. It was a meeting of innovative startups organized by the UK Department for International Trade, Startup Campus Global and New Generation Center.
During the event, Sławomir Bartoszcze, the Director of International Expansion of our company, presented the Pregnabit system and held a series of discussions about the telemedical health market in Great Britain. It was also a great opportunity to exchange experiences with other representatives of innovative solutions.
The Provincial Specialist Hospital in Biała Podlaska is one of the five provincial rank hospitals and at the same time the largest diagnostic and therapeutic center of the northern part of the Lublin province. Specialist medical care includes the population of the region with around 380,000 residents. The hospital pays great attention to the increase in the standard of care for pregnant women. The institution is the implementer of the national KOC program – coordinated care for a pregnant woman. The program assumes versatile and comprehensive care over a pregnant woman, during delivery and 6 weeks after birth. At the same time, the hospital has a significant increase in the number of births. In 2017, there were 1425 births in it, that is 20% more than last year. Pregnabit system is to increase prevention, by detecting threats at an early stage, and at the same time increase the sense of safety and comfort of pregnant women.
– The contract in Biała Podlaska shows that our innovative solution meets the needs of modern healthcare. The staff and patients are very positive about the Pregnabit system, which we tested in the first half of this year. The positive results of the pilot determined permanent implementation of the system. We hope that after the first implementations, we can expand cooperation with Provincial Specialist Hospital in Biała Podlaska. At the same time, we are negotiating with other institutions, which may result in subsequent contracts at the turn of 2018 and 2019 – said Patrycja Wizińska-Socha, President of Nestmedic. 
The Nigerian market is very promising. Nigeria is the seventh largest country in the world where nearly 5 million children are born each year. It is a very open market for innovations in medicine. The PwC report “New Technologies revolutionize the healthcare market” shows that as many as 94% of patients in Nigeria are open to the use of new technologies (compared to 39% in the United Kingdom). In addition, recently the authorities of the country put a lot of emphasis on the development of high-speed internet, which will enable the implementation of telemedicine solutions on a wider scale, allowing at the same time to facilitate access to healthcare.
