Born With a Purpose: Our Mission

In 1963, two students embarked on a mission to perfectly match technology with the human body. That remains our company’s driving mission to this day.

Dr. Max Schaldach and Otto Franke developed the first German implantable pacemaker, beginning the BIOTRONIK commitment to advance health and well-being for all people.
