The Copli solution - A disruptive innovation
THE NEED
Developing countries are home to over 8 million amputees mainly due to vascular diseases, trauma, unmarked mines, negligence and lack of medical services.
The vast majority of amputees do not have access to a reasonable solution to their condition. Government health budgets in developing countries are severely limited and concentrated in urban areas, potentially servicing approximately 20% of the population.
The remaining 80% of the population are scattered in villages far away from medical centers with no access to professional lab and technician support required for the customization of existing prosthetic leg solutions.
