Forbes Magazine named Embla Medical to its first-ever global Accessibility 100 list, recognizing innovators in the field of accessibility for people with disabilities. Embla Medical is home to a number of leading mobility brands, including Össur, Fior & Gentz, and College Park. The company also operates ForMotion patient care clinics around the globe.
The Forbes list was curated through interviews with more than 400 accessibility leaders in more than 15 countries. Organizations were selected based on impact, innovation, and potential to drive systemic change across industries.
“Accessibility is a fascinating space that has never been captured like this before,” said Alan Schwarz, the magazine’s assistant managing editor who spearheaded the project. “There are lone innovators, juggernaut tech companies, startups. They are revolutionizing how people get around, learn, communicate, work, play sports, travel, and so much more. Their impact on people’s lives is monumental—and will only be getting more so soon.”
“We are honored to have received this recognition as a purpose-driven company that is passionately committed to improving the quality of life for people experiencing chronic mobility challenges,” said Sveinn Sölvason, Embla Medical’s president and CEO. “From designing award-winning mobility solutions to operating our network of patient care clinics, we remain singularly focused on providing innovative mobility solutions that help more people live a life without limitations.”
