PARIS & BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:


SpineGuard (FR0011464452 – ALSGD), an innovative company that deploys its DSG® (Dynamic Surgical Guidance) sensing technology to secure and streamline the placement of bone implants, announced today its first half 2022 revenue.

Pierre Jérôme, Co-founder, Chairman and CEO of SpineGuard, declared: “Driven by the rebound of our commercial activities in the US and the increasing impact of our new DSG Connect platform on the heels of a sustained performance in Europe and Latin America, our sales growth is accelerating in Q2. The feedback from the 20+ centers having evaluated DSG Connect is highlighting its value added in particular with regards to shortening the learning curve for the new adopters of our x-ray free real time Dynamic Surgical Guidance technology. We have scheduled its full-scale launch in October around the NASS (North American Spine Society) and Eurospine congresses, the two main annual events in our industry. On another note, we are very satisfied with the first six months of our collaboration with WishBone Medical, our new strategic partner. The contractual agreements they have put in place with US hospital GPOs (Group Purchasing Organizations) definitively provide them with quick access to the pediatric orthopedic market. "
