Fostering revolutionary technologies for people with lower-limb disabilities. Health, fitness, and adventure for all.
关于我们
We support incredible startups working on life-changing solutions for people with lower-limb disabilities. Our purpose is to be a catalyst for improved development and delivery of groundbreaking innovations that will one day make wheelchairs and walkers obsolete. There are an estimated 100 million people around the world living with lower-limb disability. Disease, spinal cord injury, amputation, stroke, and aging are just a few of the contributing factors to this broad and diverse population. Yet innovation for people with physical disabilities lags well behind advances in other industries. That’s why supporting entrepreneurship in bionics is so important. In fact, with the right investments in technology and business, we can create a groundswell of innovation that enables freedom of mobility for all. Whether a child, a wounded veteran, or an elderly loved one, let’s create a future where everyone lives with the same independence that so many of us take for granted.

Sydney Robinson has been a tireless leader and champion for her startup, Vessl Prosthetics Inc. Exactly the type of bionics entrepreneur the world needs. Great job, Sydney, and we're excited for what's to come!
Big News from Vessl! We’re beyond excited to share that we’ve officially oversubscribed our pre-seed funding round! This is a huge step forward for us as we continue our mission to help amputees live fuller, more independent lives. We’re so proud of what we’ve built so far. Our Isoform? prosthetic system is unlike anything else out there. It automatically adjusts to your limb’s changing volume throughout the day, so you don’t need to deal with uncomfortable socks or constant tweaks. It’s comfy, sleek, and designed to fit seamlessly into your life. And we’re hearing from happy users that it makes a huge difference in their day-to-day comfort and confidence. Getting to this point wouldn’t have been possible without the support of amazing partners, mentors, and investors—thank you to Accelerator Centre, Medical Innovation Xchange , OBIO, Realize Labs, BioNext, Brampton Venture Zone by TMU, TechAlliance of Southwestern Ontario, Velocity, Communitech, Innovation Factory , Spring, ventureLAB, Techstars, and everyone who’s been part of the journey. We’re just getting started, and this funding will help us move faster and reach more people who need better prosthetic solutions. At Vessl, we’re all about making prosthetics that work for real people—no more painful fits, no more constant adjustments. We want amputees to feel empowered, independent, and comfortable every single day. Can’t wait to see where this goes next! Stay tuned for more updates. https://vesslpro.com/news

Being part of this inspiring network continues to push me to grow and innovate. - To the organizers of the award and the ceremony: Monique (Verrier) Mulkern, Florence Klein, Jean-Luc Boulnois; thank you for this humbling recognition and for celebrating the power of entrepreneurship and impact. - Most importantly, a special thank you to my incredible team—your dedication, passion, and shared vision are the driving force behind everything we accomplish at REEV. This award reflects our collective commitment to empowering people with disabilities through technology prowess. I am very proud of it! Let's go ????
