The company's mission is to address unmet medical needs in the fields of severe burns, chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds, connective tissue disorders, and other medical conditions. MediWound leverages its patented proteolytic enzyme technology to create innovative and effective treatments.
NexoBrid®, MediWound's flagship product, has received marketing authorization from multiple health agencies, including the European Medicines Agency, as well as health ministries in Israel and Argentina.

This product has shown significant potential in clinical trials, suggesting it can outperform traditional enzymatic debridement methods and improve patient outcomes. Additionally, MW005 is under development for the treatment of non-melanoma skin cancers, offering a new hope for patients with basal cell carcinoma.
The company has established valuable partnerships and research collaborations with industry leaders such as 3M, Mölnlycke, and MIMEDX. These collaborations aim to further validate and enhance MediWound's product pipeline. Recent achievements include substantial governmental grants, expanded indications for NexoBrid, and successful market entries in new regions.
