Team Circleg is growing! After Max has already worked with Project Circleg for his Master's thesis as a biomedical engineer at the ETH, we are very happy to announce that he is now an official Circleg team member. Yay! With his interconnected thinking, his pro-active nature and his engineering skills, he will tackle the next challenges together with the product development team. Besides, Max has the best hobbies: windsurfing, smolball and sepak takraw. If you have any questions about any of them, please don't hesitate to contact him.⁠

During our pilot in East-Africa we met countless wonderful people who listened to our idea and brought it’s realization forward with their knowledge, their network and a lot of creativity.

One of the result of these encounters is the collaboration between four East-african artists and Project Circleg. The "Artist Series" has given our Circleg-Prosthesis a unique look, transforming it into an artwork. We can’t wait to share with you the result and give you some insights about the collaboration here on our channels. Stay tuned!

A big THANK YOU to the inspiring artists, who we were allowed to accompany for one day in their ateliers: Sanguine, @kolaman_uganda @mbithe.mutavi @sogallo_

Goodbye East Africa! The last seven weeks in Ugand

Goodbye East Africa! The last seven weeks in Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Kenya have been absolutely amazing.

This pilot has shown once again that digital connection can never be replaced by physical encounters.

Every single one of these encounters
was valuable and enriching on our journey to allow the newly gained knowledge to flow into our next phase of industrialization.

Meanwhile our local knowledge deepened, our shared moments with people we met led to friendships.

Our greatest gift from this trip was not only the local coffee blend but also the realization that we are one step ahead in the development process. This really motivates us for the final round back in Switzerland.

ASANTE SANA💛💙🧡❤💚

Together we are stronger! During our Pilot Trip

Together we are stronger!
During our Pilot Trip here in East Africa we talked to many organisations, companies, hospitals and people who are very passionate about supporting people with a disability. Together we can build a strong network that works on different levels towards an inclusive society. We are determined to bring our contribution to the table.

Watch our pilot journal highlights to get some insights!

The progress we have made between our last East African research trip and today has been huge!⁠
⁠
This pilot's testing has further highlighted how far we've come over the last two years. During our last trip, we focused on understanding the key functional requirements of our East African users. This time, we got to happily observe how our latest prosthesis fully matched their needs, satisfying amputees and orthopaedic technicians in terms of stability, safety, comfort, modularity and fit. This process has been extremely rewarding, confirming the validity of our system and giving us fresh motivation to continue our quest.⁠
⁠
A big thank you to everyone who tested the “Circleg Mukono” with us and provided us with their honest feedback. Your opinion is crucial to achieve our development goals in the near future.⁠

It is the second time we have the privilege to set

It is the second time we have the privilege to set up the Circleg testing-base in the premises of ProUganda in Mukono, an organization providing high quality prosthetics to amputees across the country in their orthopedic workshop.

The experienced team consists of trained orthopedic technicians and volunteers. With their expertise and great facilities, the ProUganda team supported us throughout the testing process and gave us valuable feedback on the new Circleg Mukono.

As a tribute, we have named our latest prototype after the place where ProUganda is based and where we tested the Circleg prototypes together for the first time.

Thank you ProUganda for sharing your environment and expertise with us.

It’s great to be back to test our latest prototype “Circleg Mukono”!

Our team is currently on the road for two months in East Africa to test the latest prototype with local amputees and orthopaedic technicians and meet different stakeholders. After an intensive development period, it makes us extremely happy to see the Circleg Mukono in use during the testing. Here with Pro Uganda we could benefit a lot from their professional infrastructure and connect with all the amazing people we have been testing with already two years ago. We are incredibly excited to take the next steps together. Here we go!

Thank you for the photos @luccabarbery
