Invitation to the opening of the MITCenter – Centre for Medical Innovation and Technology

Leipzig. In April 2026, the MITCenter was established as an independent subsidiary of Leipzig University Hospital (UKL) in cooperation with the University of Leipzig. Its mission is to accelerate the transfer of medical innovations from research directly to the patient’s bedside. The aim is to become the first point of contact for medical innovations in Central Germany and to closely link clinics and hospitals with the medical industry – with the aim of turning excellent research into tangible progress for patients.
