About Smith & Nephew FZE
Smith & Nephew is a British medical technology company with a history going back more than 150 years. It operates in the Middle East through a regional entity based in a Dubai free zone.
The company focuses on three main areas. Orthopaedics covers hip and knee replacement implants and trauma products used to fix broken bones. Sports medicine includes instruments and implants for keyhole joint surgery, such as repairing knee ligaments and shoulder injuries. Advanced wound management provides dressings and devices for treating chronic and complex wounds.
Robotics-assisted surgery is part of its offering, with systems that help surgeons plan and perform joint replacements more precisely.
Hospitals in the UAE perform a growing number of joint replacements and sports injury surgeries, supported by an active population and an ageing group of long-term residents.
Wound care is important for patients with diabetes, who are at risk of foot ulcers, a significant health concern in the Gulf.
Medical technology companies work with surgeons on training and support during procedures.
Smith & Nephew is a British company rather than a UAE startup, and Startups UAE lists its regional entity among the medical technology companies in the UAE.
