iMPACT Implants

As BAAT we are constantly looking forward and invest in knowledge which enables us to improve healthcare by making better medical devices available to those who need them.

One of our new projects is iMPACT Implants

Together with the University Medical Centre Groningen (UMCG), in collaboration with the ENTEG Institute of the Faculty of Sciences and Engineering of the University of Groningen, and companies WiTEC Innovating Together, Bether Encapsulates,and PolyVation, we have have secured a substantial 3.7 MLN EUR regional grant from the Just Transition Fund (JTF) to start the program iMPaCT-implants.

With the iMPaCT-implants project we aim to create a new generation of personalized implants. iMPaCT-implants goal is to create a system from patient to product.

This system enables a fast track to make new innovations, based on specific patient needs, available to that patient and also to patients with similar needs. Highest standard of care while assuring patient safety and compliance to the Medical Device Regulations throughout the entire chain of patient intake, development, production to OR.

This innovative initiative harnesses the potential of cutting-edge digital technology, including 3D imaging, and integrates patient-specific data such as bite force, walking patterns, and other movements.

The iMPACT implant consortium aspires to set a standard for custom made or patient specific implants within the European Union, making custom implant solutions a reality for wide group of patients.

The Just Transition Fund

The JTF provides essential support, advancing sustainable development the Northern Labour Market regions. The fund is co-financed by the European Union and the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy and is made available by the regional funding agency Samenwerkingsverband Noord-Nederland (SNN), with support from the Province and Municipality of Groningen.
