More about Martijn Cox
TIAS and TU/e alumnus Martijn Cox is Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer at Xeltis, a pioneering medical technology company developing regenerative cardiovascular implants to improve patients' quality of life worldwide. With a background in biomedical engineering (TU/e), combined with a Master in Business Innovation from TIAS, Martijn brings a unique mix of technical expertise and business acumen.
"The TIAS Master in Business Innovation I completed had a strong connection with Xeltis. The program was specifically designed for early-stage tech entrepreneurs, and all assignments and modules we covered over the two years were based on real cases from Xeltis. In addition to providing (theoretical) tools to further develop our business plan, the professors were experts in their fields, and we made extensive use of their insights to strengthen our case."
