Sky Medical Technology has announced the appointment of Fiona Young as director for its wound care therapy business.
Young will spearhead and build-out Sky’s geko device sales and marketing strategy in the woundcare space.
Sky is a UK-based maker of wearable medical devices designed to heal chronic wounds that afflict millions of sufferers around the world every year.
The global woundcare market is projected to reach $27.2billion by 2027, driven by the growth of an aging population and the rising use of technological advancements in innovative woundcare products.
Young brings to Sky a proven track record in building international sales success in the woundcare market.
Across her 20-year career, she has worked in sales development roles at Crawford Healthcare, Flen Health, and Lohmann & Rauscher, helping to introduce and integrate new products into woundcare pathways.
She said: “Sky has an exceptionally-dynamic technology platform with multiple large market opportunities – woundcare therapy being among the largest of these.
“I am delighted to be working with the team and excited to lead a clinical partner advocacy programme that will help drive geko device adoption.
The market is ripe for the introduction of the clinically-proven geko device, an innovation able to improve the lives of millions living with chronic wounds.”
