Monivent AB (”Monivent”) develops, manufactures and sells medical devices in order to improve the emergency care provided to newborns in need of respiratory support at birth. About three to six percent of all newborns end up in this critical situation and healthcare professionals today lack good tools to determine how effective this manual ventilation is. Monivent has developed equipment that measure the airflow to the child directly in the face mask via a sensor module that sends data wirelessly to an external monitor. The caregiver thereby receives immediate feedback, which enables necessary adjustments to support an effective but at the same time gentle treatment. The company is also marketing a product for simulation-based training on manikins, building on the same technology as the clinical product. The clinical product, Monivent Neo100, is not available for sale in the United States.

Tartu University Hospital Children’s Foundation was founded in 2000 by 26 individuals. Tartu University Hospital Children’s Foundation is one of Estonia’s oldest and largest charitable foundations and they support hundreds of children in need of special treatment and care, and their families. They also support the purchasing of medical equipment to hospitals. In their 19 years of operating, they have collected more than 8 million Euros through donation, to improve the quality of treatment of the children.
