Vision

Innovations in medical technology should be implemented as quickly as possible for the benefit of patients. This requires a reliable approval process. Innovation cycles in medical technology are becoming longer due to increasingly complex systems and more demanding approval processes. With SEMECO, we want to develop and approve smart medical devices and implants more quickly so that they can benefit patients faster. We are relying on new technologies such as artificial intelligence and a modular system architecture. Our aim is to enable faster diagnoses and gentler treatments, promote modern working methods in medicine, make innovative medicine affordable and bring networked products to approval more quickly.

Innovative and sustainable collaboration

With the Else Kröner Fresenius Center for Digital Health, the 5G++Lab Germany and the Barkhausen Institut, the SEMECO future cluster around TUD Dresden University of Technology offers ideal conditions for innovative and sustainable collaboration at the leading European location for microelectronics, communication technology and explainable AI – i.e. artificial intelligence whose results can be understood and interpreted by humans. As part of the Clusters4Future initiative, an ecosystem is being created that taps into the innovation and future potential of the semiconductor and microsystems technology industry for medical technology, brings together justified regulatory and safety requirements and develops applications for the market.
