START
In 2009, Johannes Wolters and I founded Lavoisier. We had already worked together at two med-tech start-up companies: SenzAir (breath analysis) and Vithèr (cancer therapy). This collaboration went so well that we decided to set up a holding company and to continue the existing companies and all new initiatives under the holding. The purpose is to create a strong network of new businesses in the field of medical technology. Lavoisier was born.
Since then, developments went quickly in our company. We formed a dedicated team of entrepreneurs and professionals who cooperate synergistically within Lavoisier. Mutual inspiration and sharing knowledge help in our mutual success. As a result, we currently support approximately ten promising med-tech start-ups.
COMMITTED TO THE SUCCESS
Lavoisier has all of the knowledge and experience necessary for developing an innovative idea in the field of medical technology into a successful market introduction:
