AVVie

AVVie GmbH is a medical device start-up company focused on developing minimally invasive implants for heart valve repair. Mitral regurgitation occurs when the mitral valve leaflets do not close properly. While minor leaks are usually not considered problematic, more severe cases can weaken the heart over time and lead to heart failure. The core team of AVVie consists of engineers and executives with many years of experience in the cardiovascular medical device industry. The start-up is supported by a group of international partners with expertise in endovascular devices, material technology, and regulatory affairs.
