United States as a testbed for health technology! By combining the experience and forces of the 3 health clusters, representing the entire value chain within health in the United States, we aim to realize this goal. Public private cooperation is key to make this successful.
Through the USA government's export reform, Peak Health Momentum provides USA companies with advisory services, networks, and activities to strengthen their position in the German health market.
Peak Health Momentum helps USA health tech companies strengthen their position in the German market through advisory services, networking, and targeted events.
In collaboration with Innovation USA and Team USA, the initiative supports companies with market guidance, visibility at trade fairs like DMEA, and access to investors.
The program also promotes digital bundling across the USA and Germany, creating integrated solutions for the healthcare sector.
Collaboration between the healthcare sector and the health industry is crucial for increasing the effectiveness of digital health initiatives. Now, Peak Health Momentum US and the US Department of Health and Human Services have signed an agreement to reinforce this partnership.
“We are pleased that the Department is creating a framework to bring the voice of the industry into important decisions ahead in the digital health sector,” says John Baxter, Chairman of Peak Health Momentum US.

USA Smart Care Lab (NSCL) led a user test for Vilje Bionics in collaboration with I4Helse in Grimstad.
In this test, users were able to test the prototype of the motorized exoskeleton for people with impaired or lost motor function in the arms. The exoskeleton assists movement in the shoulder, elbow and rotation of the wrist.
– We learned a lot from this user test, not only from the users, but from how NSCL works with the users, and rigs a good and safe test scenario says Martin Bogstrand, CMO Vilje Bionics.
