This year, PeekMed is celebrating a decade of innovation, growth, and impact. Ten years ago, we set out on a mission to revolutionize orthopedic preoperative planning.

 A decade ago, we started with a bold vision: to empower surgeons with advanced, intuitive tools for safer, more predictable surgeries. Today, we’re leading the way with automated orthopedic solutions with AI, and we're proud to share some milestones we've reached.

From changing the way surgeons approach procedures to empowering more than 4,500 users worldwide, PeekMed has become a trusted name in the field.

But the best part? We've only just begun. In this blog post, we'll dive into the numbers and impact that have defined our journey, and how we continue to push the boundaries of what's possible in orthopedic planning.

Here's what 10 years looks like when you're building something extraordinary:

2015: A Spark of Innovation

We started small, but we dreamed big. By the end of our first year, we had secured our first round of investment. That was step one.

2016: Building a Foundation for Excellence

Our journey to becoming a leader in orthopedic technology began with the implementation of an ISO 13485-compliant quality management system. The result? A clear focus on quality and innovation sets us apart. And the recognition came fast - we won 3rd place in the Zimmer Biomet Connected Health Innovation Award.

2017: Entering the Market with Strength

With CE mark certification in hand, we officially began commercialization in Europe. This was the start of something much bigger, as we caught the attention of major players around the world.

2018: Paving the Way to the US Market

The 510(k) FDA clearance was a game changer. Now, we weren't just a European leader - we had the green light to enter the world's largest healthcare market. Pilot studies in Germany and Spain validated the impact of our product and laid a solid foundation for the years ahead.

2019: A patent and global recognition

This year was monumental. We were granted our U.S. patent, solidifying our position as a pioneer in orthopedic preoperative planning. Across Europe and the U.S., we were recognized in multiple competitions, proving the strength of our solutions in front of industry leaders.

2020: Expanding Globally

Even during global challenges, we made remarkable progress. Our European patent was granted, and we entered the Brazilian market with ANVISA notification. To support our growing operations, we expanded our team-preparing PeekMed for the next leap forward.

2021: Scaling with Strategic Investment

3 million in Series A funding, led by Grosvenor House of Investments and Portugal Ventures, fueled our growth. We strengthened our presence in Germany by opening an office in Weissach, furthering our mission to build lasting partnerships in key markets.

2022: Record-breaking achievements

This was a year of milestones: we secured a €2.3 million grant from the European Innovation Council Accelerator largest ever awarded to a Portuguese health technology company. And our certification for the EU Medical Device Directive marked another regulatory triumph. With our growing team, we have our sights set on even greater achievements.
