Acumed

Acumed is a well-established, commercial-stage medical device company with over 35 years of experience in the orthopedic trauma market. It has achieved significant commercial scale with flagship products like the Acutrak headless compression screw system (over 3 million implanted) and the Acu-Loc plating system (over 1 million plates placed). The company differentiates itself through a strong focus on surgeon education via its mobile cadaver lab program and is expanding into digital surgery with patient-tailored planning and implants. Acumed operates as a global business, with a headquarters in Madrid, Spain, and a significant operational presence in the United States.

Portfolio of mechanical fracture fixation implants (plates, screws, nails, staples) and instrumentation, complemented by a digital surgery platform for patient-specific planning and implants, and a mobile cadaver lab service for surgeon training.

Acumed competes in the orthopedic trauma space against massive, full-portfolio companies like Stryker (Trauma & Extremities), DePuy Synthes (J&J), and Zimmer Biomet. Its differentiation lies in its deep specialization in extremities, a strong focus on surgeon education via its unique mobile labs, and a targeted portfolio that avoids direct competition in large-joint reconstruction. It also competes with other extremity specialists like Arthrex, Orthofix, and Wright Medical (now part of Stryker).
