The 19th edition of the KVK Innovation Top 100 has awarded its highest honor to Concord Neonatal for its life-changing innovation, the Concord Birth Flow. This groundbreaking system transforms maternity care by enabling newborns to receive immediate care while remaining connected to their mothers through an intact umbilical cord. This approach improves medical outcomes and strengthens the vital bond between mother and child during critical moments.
Concord Neonatal’s achievement is a testament to the impact of their work. Their innovation, which simplifies and improves stabilization and resuscitation procedures for newborns, has the potential to become a standard feature in hospitals worldwide. Greet Prins, Chair of the KVK Board, highlighted the significance of their contribution:
“The Concord Birth Flow is a very nice innovation. The product directly touches on a sense of importance and urgency. The main jury unanimously chose this innovation as the overall winner.”
This recognition cements Concord Neonatal’s position as a leader in neonatal care and signals its innovation’s bright future in improving newborn outcomes globally.
Juvoly, another healthcare innovator celebrated in the Health and Care category, joins Concord Neonatal in the spotlight. Juvoly has developed cutting-edge speech technology that helps healthcare professionals save time and reduce administrative burdens. Juvoly’s solution improves efficiency while maintaining accuracy and clarity in patient documentation by transcribing and summarising conversations with patients into concise medical reports.
This tool is particularly valuable in addressing one of healthcare professionals’ most significant challenges: managing administrative tasks while providing high-quality care. Juvoly’s recognition in the KVK Innovation Top 100 underscores the essential role of technology in solving these pressing issues.
Pierre de Winter, publisher of leading healthcare magazines and jury member, praised both Concord Neonatal and Juvoly for their contributions to healthcare, emphasizing their practical applications and potential for widespread adoption.
Both Concord Neonatal and Juvoly demonstrate the power of focused innovation in healthcare. While Concord Neonatal is redefining care for newborns with its Concord Birth Flow, Juvoly is improving the day-to-day operations of healthcare professionals with its innovative speech technology.
The recognition of these two companies highlights their shared commitment to addressing critical gaps in healthcare through well-designed, practical solutions.
Concord Neonatal and Juvoly are part of the Leiden Bio Science Park, a thriving healthcare and life sciences hub for innovation. Their achievements reflect the park’s reputation for fostering cutting-edge developments that have a real-world impact.
Congratulations to Concord Neonatal and Juvoly for their well-deserved recognition in the KVK Innovation Top 100. Their work is shaping the future of healthcare and making a profound difference in people’s lives.
