By making high-performance prosthetics and assistive technologies both affordable and accessible, we are empowering individuals to regain mobility, independence, and confidence, turning challenges into opportunities and fulfilling our Vision 2030 of reaching 1 lakh beneficiaries nationwide.”
Under the MoU, AMTZ will provide technical and operational support, access to R&D and testing infrastructure, and assistance in joint research initiatives. NSS will lead clinical validation, rehabilitation protocols, and nationwide assistive device camps. Both parties will also jointly pursue grants, patents, and support programs from national and international funding bodies to accelerate innovation and expand access to high-quality medical devices for underserved communities.
This collaboration represents a transformative step toward making cutting-edge prosthetic, orthotic, and assistive technologies accessible, affordable, and performance-driven, combining global standards with grassroots impact.
