Frequently asked quesitons

About a third of our cases are co-created with healthcare, life science, pharma and medtech companies that present us with a specific challenge. Another third come from university hospitals, healthcare professionals and healthcare providers. The rest comes from within our own team, because Evoleener are constantly scouting for new unsolved challenges in healthcare.

Sometimes our partners have already done an analysis and have a good understanding of the customer’s problems. Then we take over and drive the ideation and solution development with agility and speed. In most cases, however, we start with a joint discovery phase to understand the “problem – challenge” to be solved. 

At Evoleen, we believe in the power of tailored collaboration models. Whether it’s understanding a specific problem, ideating solutions, developing rapid prototypes, market testing, legal manufacturing partnerships, we work closely with you to determine the ideal model that fits your budget and strategy. Our approach is driven by a single goal: to maximize your chances of success. We understand that every organization is different, and that’s why we work hand in hand with you to create the perfect setup that will propel you towards your goals and aspirations.
