CO.DON GmbH partners in EU-Funded Project to Advance 3D Bioprinting for Tissue Regeneration
Teltow, 05. February 2025 – The EU-funded micro2MACRO (m2M) project, launched in December 2024, aims to advance tissue regeneration through an innovative bioprinting platform.
m2M focuses on precisely patterning cell aggregates and microtissues into stable, customizable grafts that remodel into functional tissues after implantation. The project unites leading academic institutions, research centers, and companies to develop scalable, personalized grafts for tissue repair.
"We are proud to be a partner in the m2M project and believe in its potential to significantly advance the development of therapies for the regeneration of tissue. We are happy to contribute and share our more than 30 years of experience in the field of regenerative medicine as well as our regulatory expertise as the holder of an EU approved cell-based therapy for cartilage repair" explained Dr. Giulietta Roël, Executive Director of CO.DON GmbH.
Beyond technical development, m2M will foster knowledge exchange and workshops to enhance researchers' and healthcare professionals' skills across Europe.
CO.DON develops, produces and distributes autologous cell therapies for the minimally invasive repair of cartilage defects. The product being marketed is a cell therapy product for the minimally invasive treatment of cartilage damage in the knee joint that uses only the patient's own cartilage cells. More than 20,000 patients have already been treated with CO.DON's method. In January 2023, CO.DON GmbH was acquired by ReLive Biotechnologies, a global company headquartered in the US.

Vyoma’s first Space Domain Awareness satellite has reached orbit13.1.2026 13:42:00 CET | Press release
Munich, 13. January 2026 - Vyoma, a Germany-based company providing Space Domain Awareness (SDA) capabilities, has launched its pioneering surveillance satellite, Flamingo-1, on Sunday, January 11th, 2026 from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, USA. It was launched aboard the Twilight rideshare mission with SpaceX via Germany-based launch integrator Exolaunch. The satellite was deployed to its operational Sun-synchronous orbit of approximately 500-km in altitude. This marks a significant achievement for the company, which patented the operational concept of an optimized SDA mission. Flamingo-1, equipped with an optical sensor for space-based space surveillance, is a gamechanger for Europe, strengthening SDA efforts directly from orbit. The advanced optical instrument will detect, track and characterize space objects, such as debris and other satellites. Crucially, it will allow Vyoma and its customers to follow up on manoeuvring objects and derive insights into adversary actions

Acousia Announces Completion of Patient Enrollment in Phase 2 PROHEAR Study Evaluating ACOU085 (INN: Bimokalner) for the Prevention of Cisplatin-Induced Ototoxicity8.1.2026 09:00:00 CET | Press release
Tübingen, Germany, January 8, 2026 Acousia Therapeutics GmbH, a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing treatments for acute and chronic inner ear hearing loss, announced the completion of patient enrollment in its Phase 2 PROHEAR clinical study. ACOU085 (INN: Bimokalner) is a proprietary, first-in-class small molecule that has demonstrated robust and reproducible efficacy across multiple preclinical hearing loss models, including drug-induced ototoxicity. The PROHEAR Study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, split-body, multicenter Phase 2 trial. It enrolled young male patients with metastatic testicular cancer who are scheduled to receive cisplatin-based chemotherapy. While cisplatin is a highly effective chemotherapeutic agent, cumulative doses of ≥300 mg/m² lead to clinically meaningful, permanent hearing loss in the majority of patients. Fifteen leading university hospitals in Germany are participating in this interdisciplinary study. Patients are randomized
