<p>With the launch of MDA, European inventors now have the opportunity to transform their medical technology ideas into reality, through the investment of engineering, legal, and commercial expertise.</p>
<p>Backed by corporate and venture capital from Europe, MDA aims to leverage the competencies of its partners to bring ideas that pass the initial screening process, through proof of concept, to new company incorporation and preparation for external funding.</p>
<p>MDA is financially backed by its founders, Paris-based independent Venture Capital firm Sofinnova Partners and global medical device leader Medtronic Inc.  and supported by its partners, European-based contract medical device manufacturing specialists CMI (Contract Medical, International) and Valtronic Technologies.</p>
