Commercial Director
At SLAM Ortho, we are dedicated to empowering trauma surgeons with innovative sensor technology, enabling them to provide superior care for patients with fractures.
By combining advanced sensor technology, smart data analysis and a reusable device design, we help surgeons operate faster and place implants more precisely - reducing complications and supporting quicker recovery.
SLAM Ortho's ADEPTH system will be CE certified early 2026. To ensure a successful market launch, preparations for concrete pilots with hospitals and collaborations with distributors and strategists are underway.

Ultimately, the goal is to succesfully bring the product to the market by direct sales on a small scale combined with larger sales through (strategic) distributors. The Commercial Director plays a key role in achieving these goals.
