SBi was founded in 2004 by Viscogliosi Brothers, LLC, (VB), a New York merchant banking firm that specializes in the musculoskeletal/orthopedics sector. VB created SBi as the first company to focus purely on small bones & joints. SBi offers a broad, clinically proven portfolio of products and technologies including the market leading S.T.A.R. total ankle replacement system. Today, SBi has facilities in New York, NY, Morrisville, PA, Bourg-en-Bresse, France, Donaueschingen, Germany, and Kuala Lumpur, and Malaysia.
Last month, the company’s Morrisville, PA and Péronnas, France facilities received manufacturers’ accreditation from the government of Japan. The accreditation will allow product registrations in Japan, currently the region’s biggest market for orthopedic technologies at $25 billion in revenues annually.
The award is an important and essential step in developing SBi’s strategic partnership with Olympus Terumo Biomaterials Corporation (OTB), Tokyo, announced last year, to exclusively market an extensive portfolio of small bone & joint implants and instrumentation in Japan, including SBi’s flagship product, the STAR Total Ankle Replacement System.
Small Bone Innovations will be presenting at OneMedForum NY 2011 on June 23-24.
