Regulatory Affairs Manager, ABIGO Medical AB

ABIGO Medical AB develops, manufactures and markets products including the Sorbact® technology, which is a clinically established innovation for advanced wound care. ABIGO was founded in 1989 by the brothers Jan G and Leif Smith. The company has about 170 employees and distribution of products in some 60 countries through own sales organisations and partners. An active research and development program in selected areas opens up exciting opportunities for growth and has also led to a number of international patents and patent applications. Unique, patented products developed in house, with international potential in niche areas, are part of ABIGO’s business philosophy. Early this year, Essity acquired 75% of ABIGO Medical, securing the potential to continue the journey of growth.
