Inspira Technologies, a groundbreaking life support technology company, is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Glo-Med Networks Inc (“Glo-Med”), which will serve as Inspira’s primary distributor in the United States. Glo-Med’s distribution facility will serve as a support center for the deployment of the INSPIRA ART100 in the United States. The INSPIRA ART100 is U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k)-cleared for Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB) procedures.

Inspira aims to revolutionize life support for millions of acute respiratory failure patients each year with the Company’s proprietary INSPIRA™ ART device being designed to monitor and elevate declining blood saturation levels in minutes without a mechanical ventilator. Targeting 20 million patients each year, the INSPIRA ART has a potential estimated $19 billion market opportunity. This agreement and distribution facility aims to enhance the Company’s operational efficiency and customer service capabilities in the U.S. market. Toward the planned deployment of the INSPIRA ART100 in 2024 and looking ahead, the Company’s goal is to introduce physicians and perfusionists to Inspira’s technologies and brand proposition in preparation for the future planned deployment of the flagship INSPIRA ART.

The distribution facility, located in Florida, will play an important role in supporting the deployment and maintenance of the INSPIRA ART100 system and will potentially facilitate the commercialization of additional products in the U.S. market in the future. The medical distribution and service facility will be fully operated by Glo-Med and will serve as a central hub for Inspira’s logistics operations, pursuant to the distribution agreement, ensuring the timely and efficient distribution of the Company’s innovative medical devices. The facility will house a dedicated customer support team providing comprehensive support services to healthcare providers using Inspira’s products. Additionally, the facility will provide original equipment manufacturer certified after-market services through a partnership with Med-Stat Consulting Services (“Med-Stat”), a reputable national biomedical engineering services firm. Med-Stat was founded in 2003 and provides onsite and depot medical equipment servicing for the largest and most reputable healthcare facilities in the U.S.

Joe Hayon, co-founder and President of Inspira Technologies, stated, “This distribution agreement represents a crucial milestone in our efforts to introduce Inspira’s innovative technologies to the market. With Glo-Med managing the deployment and maintenance of the INSPIRA ART 100 system in the U.S., I believe that we are well-positioned for the future launch of our flagship INSPIRA ART and other products in our pipeline.”

Matus Knoblich, CEO of Glo-Med, stated, “I believe that the coupling of Glo-Med’s distribution network and capabilities with the industry leading service provided by Med-Stat will create a fully vertically integrated business model where customers can receive the highest level of service and support within the industry sector. Both companies will be working with the same mission in mind: growth and expansion of the Inspira Technologies brand coupled with a fully supported user experience. We believe that this will lead to success for all participants.”
