These advancements pave the way for the company's first human clinical trials. Furthermore, the company has secured both domestic and global patents, fortifying its product portfolio and creating significant barriers to entry for competitors.
Microbot Medical is actively engaging in pre-commercial activities and strategic partnerships to ensure efficient commercialization channels for the LIBERTY system once it receives regulatory approval. The company is committed to advancing its technologies and aims to integrate future capabilities such as remote operations, imaging integration, and AI functionalities.
Despite challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic and recent geopolitical events in Israel, Microbot Medical continues to meet its planned timelines and milestones.
