Company

Naviswiss’ aim is to develop and commercialize innovative optical measuring, tracking and navigation systems for medical applications. In its product development, Naviswiss addresses the unmet need for cost efficient and ergonomic measuring and navigation tools for minimal invasive procedures at the patient site.

Naviswiss is a spin-off of IFE Industrielle Forschung und Entwicklung GmbH, Laufen (Switzerland), a high tech product developing company for third parties. It can build on yearlong experience in developing optical systems for measuring, imaging and welding. IFE has a track record in development of complex instrumentation for various med tech and other industrial companies and a management team with solid complementary experience in technology and start-up environment.

Naviswiss has established relevant contacts with a number of re-known surgeons in Europe and the US. It has received a grant by the Swiss governmental innovation promoting agency KTI which finances the development work carried out by the scientific partner at the Technical University of Northwestern Switzerland (Prof. Dr. E. Schkommodau) and the University of Basel (Prof. Dr.Dr. H.F. Zeilhofer, Prof. Dr. N. Friederich).
