Our
mission
Thousands of people are living with limited arm mobility.
But most of the time, they aren’t equipped with the devices they need.
Assistive solutions for arms are rare, expensive and not very adaptable to different situations.
ORTHOPUS is developing a range of robotic assistive devices to give freedom and autonomy in daily live.
Our cutting-edge technological expertise allows us to offer new intuitive control modes for users at fair price.
OUR GOAL
ORTHOPUS wants to widen access to assistive technologies to improve people’s daily life.
We promote this kind of health:
– FAIR: with ethical prices and moderate margins
– SUSTAINABLE: putting our users’ wellness before our profit
– OPEN: sharing informations about the production of medical devices and prices
Since 2019, ORTHOPUS is a “Entreprise solidaire d’utilité sociale” holding ESUS approval.
ESUS is a french agreement granted on the basis of specific criterias such as: a social utility project, democratic governance involving the company’s stakeholders, a controlled remuneration policy, the reinvestment of the majority of profits in the operation of the company.
OUR STORY
After 10 years in the robotic field, David Gouaillier wanted to build a project at the crossroads between technology and solidarity.
As motion specialist, he decided to put his technical skills to a cause: human mobility. In 2018 he founded ORTHOPUS in Nantes (France).
I created ORTHOPUS to invest my technological expertise to serve a solidarity project and shake things up in the healthcare system.
