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.
