We are thrilled to announce that Kalogon's first Medicare-approved product, Orbiter Med, has received a Special Mention in TIME's Best Inventions of 2024 List✨ This prestigious recognition underscores Orbiter Med's significant impact on improving seated wellness within healthcare, transportation and defense industries. Every year for over two decades, TIME has highlighted the most impactful new products and ideas in TIME’s Best Inventions issue. To compile the list, they solicited nominations and evaluated each contender on several key factors, including originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact. Orbiter Med was selected in a small group of Special Mentions on the list for 2024. "This recognition from TIME is a huge honor for Kalogon and is a direct result of our customers, partners and team. Kalogon doesn’t create products looking for a solution – everything we do is born out of the needs of our customers. To have our first Medicare-approved product recognized by such a reputable publication validates our customer-centric approach and expands the impact we can have in moving the industry forward."
