Dear Sir or Madam,
|
|
Once again, we have interesting topics in store for you in this first SHS Newsletter of 2021.
Uwe Steinbacher and Manfred Ulmer-Weber offer a positive summary of a year none of us is likely to forget. Spoiler alert: 2020 was a very good year for SHS!
We report on the sale of Austria-based Single Use Support GmbH, a firm that is setting new standards in the field of worldwide liquid logistics for the healthcare sector.
Today, under the new heading, ‘Milestones in medical technology’, we present you with an innovation that was created at a kitchen table in Zurich and has already saved the lives of many people.
Network with us and learn all the important news from healthcare and SHS in real time. Our LinkedIn account also offers some information that is not found in the newsletter.
We wish you all the best for 2021!
Kind regards
