Medacys And Gilero Biomedical Announce Strategic Partnership

Medical device industry suppliers collaborate to provide seamless design through manufacturing services

Medacys Medical Devices Ltd., a Shenzhen, China - based manufacturer of medical devices and components, and Gilero Biomedical, LLC, a Durham, NC - based design and development firm specializing in single-use medical devices, recently announced a strategic partnership. This agreement will allow the two organizations to offer a full range of medical technology development services from concept through manufacturing; servicing startup, early-stage, and established medical device companies.

Through the strategic partnership, the two organizations will provide medical device companies with a coordinated, seamless transfer from the development phase of a project into manufacturing; thereby eliminating the chance for miscommunication that often occurs between non-coordinated development and manufacturing teams. Companies can now work confidently with one entity on all aspects of a development project, from building a prototype straight through to the production of initial commercial units; reducing risk and accelerating time to market.

"We have been looking for a development partner who shares our passion for this industry,” said Anura Welikala, CEO of Medacys. “Gilero and Medacys are a perfect fit, we are thrilled to announce this partnership and proud of the solid infrastructure we have built that is custom tailored to benefit the medical device industry.”

Ted Mosler, President & CTO of Gilero, believes the strategic partnership will provide significant benefit to the medical device community. “Medacys is a strong manufacturing partner that allows us to leverage our design and development strengths into manufacturing. We’re excited by the depth of experience that Medacys brings to this partnership,” he said.
