NB Medical

What NB Medical does

NB Medical (Νομική Βιοϊατρική) is a privately held Greek company founded in August 2015 and headquartered in Marousi, Athens, with a branch office in Thessaloniki established in 2017. It operates as an authorized distributor of medical devices for interventional radiology, cardiology, neuroradiology, and vascular surgery, sourcing products from a portfolio of approximately 13 international manufacturers including Argon Medical Devices, CIVCO Medical Solutions, Conic Vascular Technology, MicroPort Endovastec, MicroPort NeuroTech, NextBiomedical, Q3 Medical, Scitech, Spectrumedics, AMT Medical (Beijing Advanced Medical Technologies), Rothband, LifeSignals, and AccuTarget. The portfolio spans drug-eluting and bioresorbable stents, PTCA/PTA balloon catheters, aortic stent grafts, neurovascular devices, resorbable embolization microspheres, intravascular lithotripsy platforms, CO2 angiographic injectors, cryoablation and biopsy systems, infection-control and guidance accessories, radiation-protection equipment, and wearable biosensor patient-monitoring systems.

The company generates revenue through hardware sales, importing and reselling these devices directly to hospitals and healthcare providers in Greece and Cyprus, supported by sales and technical service personnel with more than 25 years of experience in medical technologies. Its go-to-market is a direct field-sales channel to enterprise buyers (hospitals and medical centers), supplemented by bilingual Greek/English website content marketing. NB Medical holds an E.K.A.P.T.Y. certificate of trafficking of medical devices in accordance with the Ministerial Decree C. IM 88/G. P. Eco/1348/2004, which is the regulatory credential required to distribute medical devices in Greece. It is an independent, privately held entity with no disclosed parent company, subsidiaries, external investors, or M&A activity.

The business model is therefore a regional specialty medical device distribution franchise rather than a manufacturer or technology platform: revenue is driven by unit sales and margin on imported devices, customer concentration risk sits with the relatively finite pool of Greek and Cypriot interventional hospitals, and competitive positioning depends on maintaining authorized distribution relationships with international device OEMs and providing responsive technical support across the territory.
