In the last couple of years our company has obtained the ISO13485 medical device certification, which is very important to supply our product now also for usage in very big clinical trials. Furthermore we have introduced our SaaS model when we went on-market and we successfully finished a Greenrocked investment round, which by the way the most successful in Austria every by now in eHealth. We are active in more and more regions, for example we have recently carried out a study in Brazil and we have been granted two additional patents in Australia and Japan.

I believe that it also strengthened our own patient centric approach on top of our industry focus. It sharpened our ideas and dreams on how the patients in different regions and patients with different needs can benefit from our teledermatology solution.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Anything else you would like to let the community know?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"text:align justify\">Looking back, I remember that during your event we talked a lot about social impact of ehealth solutions such as ours and we were dreaming about the impact we could have in for example certain African countries. Now we are a few years further and we are on-market with our solution. This means that we are in the phase in which we can also afford to invest more of our resources in social related projects. One example is our current cooperation in the United Kingdom where our product is used in clinical research with children who have epidermolysis bullosa (so called \u201cbutterfly children). This could also be the perfect momentum to start piloting in high urgent medical need fields. We still hope that especially the WSA Network will contribute to getting us to those countries where the need for our solution is the highest so that together we can achieve all social impact aims which we are focusing on since 2017.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-19279 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/PB1_1926-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/PB1_1926-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/PB1_1926-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/PB1_1926-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/PB1_1926.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-19280 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Schnidar-Scarletred-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Schnidar-Scarletred-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Schnidar-Scarletred-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Schnidar-Scarletred-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-19281 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/APP_4450-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/APP_4450-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/APP_4450-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wsa-global.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/APP_4450-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"button button-cta\" href=\"https:\/\/scarletred.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MORE ABOUT SCARLETRED<\/a><\/h2>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Read about SCARLETRED in press:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/scarletredvision.com\/global\/winner-of-the-techbizkon-iii-award-in-japan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Winner of the TechBIZKON III Award in Japan<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.derbrutkasten.com\/medtech-scarletred-greenrocket\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Scarletred: Wiener AI-MedTech bei \u00fcber 500.000 Euro auf Greenrocket<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kleinezeitung.at\/steiermark\/weststeier\/5714648\/Scarletred_Eine-weststeirische-App-revolutioniert-die-Dermatologie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ScarletredEine weststeirische App revolutioniert die Dermatologie<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2 class=\"text:align justify\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>WSA 2017<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"text:align justify\">WSA 2017 presented a diameter of digital innovation from Chile to Malaysia, from Nigeria to Finland.
