Participants included startups, hospitals, manufacturers, technology providers, insurers as well as government agencies. All nominees for the award were adjudicated using measurable parameters, including overall reach, industry impact, market demand and future readiness, among others. IFAH is anticipating another significant year in 2019 with two additional events lined up in London and Dubai.

Mr. Parikh, who was in attendance to receive the award, expressed, “Acceptance of this award is a fantastic and humbling honor. Fresh on the heels of the release of SANUWAVE’s secondary endpoints study published in the June 2019 issue of the Journal of Wound Care, this recognition is a great opportunity for medical professionals to discover and appreciate the life-changing therapy that SANUWAVE’s dermaPACE® System can provide to millions of people suffering from Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFU’s) in the U.S. and abroad.”

This prestigious award marks the second time that SANUWAVE has been distinguished in 2019, the previous being the JWC 2019 Innovation in Chronic Wound Healing Award for dermaPACE®. This further contributes to SANUWAVE’s dynamic growth as it aggressively executes on its 2019 commercialization strategy and goal of placing 110 dermaPACE® Systems by year-end.”
