Nova Eye Medical (EYE) Discussion, page-3142

- The International Society of. Cornea, Stem Cells and Ocular Surface conference in Italy the next few days draws thousands of attendees from right across Europe.

At the risk of just ‘reposting from social media’ those readers interested in the companies European progress may come across the below. I still think it useful and appropriate evidence of the companies progress, and a lead indicator of sales, to find evidence points of Itrack in real surgical use in addition to being showcased at congress and conferences.

in this case we have both as the conference program includes eye surgery being performed live with iTrack advance from the operating rooms of university of Pisa. What’s even better about that is the university of Pisa is a research and training hub for ophthalmology and one of Europes most prestigious universities founded in 1343. They have around 50,000 students of which I’m sure only a very small proportion will be eye surgery graduates but that fact they are using itrack advance in the university means it’s an excellent feeder to ensure surgeons starting their career are immediately familiar with it’s benefits.

you will recall from the placement funds $1.6m was allocated for additional European sales and infrastructure support and I think in the last few months we have definitely seen increased activity as a result.
