Medical device company Medovate and medical device designer and manufacturer JEB Technologies have become part of the same group structure that will integrate their management, skill sets and expertise in a bid to drive greater collaboration, innovation and growth in the sector.
JEB Technologies
This strategic move involves two award-winning companies, both committed to accelerating the introduction of medical technologies that enhance patient safety and care, both in the UK and worldwide.
Medovate and JEB Technologies will combine their strengths across the full medical device development pipeline, from concept design, product development and manufacturing, through to successful regulatory approvals and global market launches. Medovate's unique approach to developing technologies in collaboration with the NHS will be complemented by JEB's extensive manufacturing experience – spanning over 50 years – in developing, manufacturing, and commercialising products globally.
Stuart Thomson, vice president of business development, said: “This is a significant step forward for the medical device industry in the UK’s eastern region, leveraging our organisations’ collective strengths and expertise, along with our respective medical technology pipelines, to accelerate the development of innovative UK medical devices and launch them successfully around the world. Medovate's experienced team will work seamlessly with JEB Technologies to drive innovation development which will positively impact healthcare globally.”
JEB Technologies was established in 1972 and specialises in designing, developing, and manufacturing a diverse range of medical and industrial products. They offer an end-to-end product development and manufacturing service, contributing their expertise from concept to commercialisation. JEB collaborates with medical professionals, innovators, and consultants to bring innovative medical ideas to life. The company’s portfolio includes the recently launched prostate biopsy device Camprobe, Transicap with further products currently in development.
Medovate aims to provide a route to market for clinician-inspired medical device innovations. Celebrating its fifth anniversary last year Medovate's portfolio spans anaesthesia, airway and surgical products, including the SAFIRA system for regional anaesthesia, Glucosave, Lumevac and Humidicare.
Sean Licence vice president of operations added: “Developing cutting-edge medical devices involves complex engineering challenges, regulatory requirements and market demands.
