Under the auspices of CCI France International, an international trade and development organization, and the patronage of the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, this prestigious French prize is awarded to recognize a company, across all technology sectors, that has developed a technological innovation which contributes to the development of economic relations between France, French companies, and the rest of the world. Selection criteria include major investments in research and development, use of new technologies, high growth potential, originality, avant-garde projects, and innovative ideas. Now in its second year of a global program, CCI France International selected PathMaker as one of 8 award recipients from amongst 150 nominees from 40 countries and awarded it the Innovation Prize.

“We are incredibly honored to have been named the recipient of this award, and would like to express our sincere appreciation to the CCI France International committee for this kind recognition of PathMaker’s progress in developing MyoRegulator®, our first-in-class, non-invasive device for the treatment of patients suffering from spasticity,” said Nader Yaghoubi, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of PathMaker. “Building on the momentum we received last year from the French- American Business (FAB) Award for Startup of the Year from FACCNE, the 2019 CCI France International Trophy for Innovation is a testament to the work done by our team and collaborators in bringing this breakthrough device to patients.”
