Baxter, TAU & TASMC partner to bring new surgical innovations worldwide

"Baxter is committed to finding creative pathways to bring innovative solutions to the operating room," said Wil Boren, president of Advanced Surgery at Baxter. "By working with leading experts at TAU and TASMC, we have access to promising early-stage research that could have a meaningful impact for surgeons looking for new tools to treat complex cases."

Under terms of the agreements, Baxter will exclusively license the TAU Technology Innovation Momentum Fund technology in one license agreement and TAU and TASMC technology in the second license agreement for use in multiple potential applications that might result from the joint research activity.

"TAU is world renowned as a leading academic and research institution for its innovation and entrepreneurship. We are gratified to see another one of TAU's technologies graduating from our unique value enhancement program the TAU Technology Innovation Momentum Fund," said Shlomo Nimrodi, chief executive officer of Ramot, the Business Engagement arm of TAU. "We are happy to partner with Baxter to explore how we can bring leading technologies to operating rooms worldwide."

Baxter, TAU and TASMC plan to explore potential applications of multiple projects that target large, unmet needs that, if successful, will expand Baxter's portfolio of products into new areas of surgical care for the company. Surgical care represents a core strategic growth pillar for Baxter, and these projects have the potential to complement Baxter's existing product offering and provide access to novel treatments.
