✨ Recap of the AHK Baltikum Delegation Visit to Erlangen
Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming the Deutsch-Baltische Handelskammer in Estland, Lettland, Litauen (AHK) to explore the German and, in particular, the Bavarian medical innovation ecosystem.
🚀 Ecosystem & Startup Insights
We kicked off with an introduction to the German and Bavarian healthcare and innovation ecosystem of Medical Valley. Startups VirtuHance and
BreathAssist from the Medical Valley network presented their innovative solutions — followed by great discussions with all participants.
🏥 Visit to University Hospital Erlangen
At noon, we visited the Universitätsklinikum Erlangen, where we were welcomed by Prof. Dr. med. Jürgen Schüttler and his team.
This visit provided insights into the hospital environment, including an exciting tour of the simulation center. We learned how AI applications in anesthesiology and intensive care can be practiced safely in simulated settings. The visit continued at the Imaging Science Institute, where we explored ongoing AI applications and research activities.
