A success story from the Hanseatic city of Stralsund - GWA Hygiene GmbH was founded in 2015 as a spin-off from Stralsund University of Applied Sciences. Their vision: to reduce hospital infections with NosoEx, a modern monitoring system for measuring hand hygiene.

After successfully taking part in the "inspired" ideas competition organised by Stralsund University of Applied Sciences, the start-up team was awarded an EXIST grant. The start-up was successful. In addition to investors such as MiG VerwaltungsAG and High-Tech Gründerfonds, the team has received numerous awards such as the KfW Award 2018 and the LUDWIG-BÖLKOW Technology Prize 2018. The team still has many plans to support hospitals on their way to becoming smart hospitals.
