TÜV Süd, our notified body, visited us to review our quality management system in accordance with ISO 13485:2016. The audit did not result in any major deviations. It confirms that we are developing our products in accordance with the stringent medical regulations and that we have a well-functioning Quality Management System.

All shareholders of QuickCool are invited to an Extraordinary General Meeting on Monday, 19 November 2018 at 17:00 in QuickCool’s premises, Ideon Science Park, Beta 6, Scheelevägen 17, 223 70 Lund.
Complementing the financing agreement that we have with the European High Growth opportunities Securitization Fund, the Board of Directors proposes a rights issue for shareholders totaling SEK 6.2 million. This will enable us to handle the peaks that arise when the costs for the third party testing and procurement of components for the 0-series occur. The rights issue is already guaranteed to SEK 3 million. More information about the extraordinary general meeting can be found on www.quickcool.se

We participated in the Outsourcing in Clinical Trials Nordic 2018 conference in Copenhagen to discuss our forthcoming clinical studies, that we will start as soon as we have a CE-marked cooling device, with possible partners. You may find more information about the conference here: http://www.arena-international.com/Uploads/2018/10/25/r/p/r/OCT-Nords-Agenda-2018-FINAL.pdf

Although the European Patent Office Published the news on its database some time ago, we were pleased when we received the news yesterday. QuickCool’s patent application via PCT (Patent Cooperation Treaty), concerning one of the significant components of QuickCool’s portable cooling device for Targeted Temperature Management (TTM) QuickCool® SYSTEM, is considered patentable. QuickCool has previously been granted the equivalent patent in Sweden. The positive opinion may contribute constructively in the patent process in several of the countries where QuickCool intends to apply for patents.

We signed a distribution agreement for Portugal with ATN Medical Lda. They have the distribution rights for other medical products that address needs within neurosurgery, spinal surgery and intensive care. Regional sales representatives cover the entire Portuguese market. We find many synergies as they already have a well-established network of Key Opinion leaders (KOLs) and customers. Dedicated service and training personnel ensure both clinical training and product and aftermarket support. We look forward to many successful years together.
