"BioNext has played a major role in accelerating our technical progress. Their access to dry lab space, vent hoods, high-end 3D printing capabilities, and a wide range of fabrication and measurement tools has enabled us to rapidly develop and iterate on prototypes, testing rigs, and early-stage product designs.
Equally important has been their network of experienced specialists across clinical trials, engineering, and machining. The ability to draw on this expertise has helped us make better-informed decisions, refine our direction, and pursue our goals with greater confidence."
- Oleksiy Zaika, Co-Founder of Vessl Prosthetics
