The whole team proudly organised and was part of different activities, to make sure our guests had the best time and to show them our gratitude. At the entrance, we welcomed them with a glass of cava, and we also offered them a big variety of snacks and drinks. Alfons, our CEO, made an emotional speech that was followed by demonstrations of our exoskeletons led by our Clinical Specialist, Helena L\u00f3pez.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[su_youtube_advanced url=&#8221;https:\/\/youtu.be\/0L-GqJ8btvY?feature=shared&#8221; width=&#8221;380&#8243; height=&#8221;300&#8243; autoplay=&#8221;yes&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guided tours around our new facilities were also available for everyone who had the curiosity to see where we work and will manufacture our first exoskeletons. In our facilities, we showed them the production area and a museum we have built with the history of the company, including the different prototypes that we built until we achieved the final product, as well as the awards and recognitions we received over the last years. There was also the possibility to buy ABLE merchandise like T-shirts and sweatshirts. And a Halloween-themed face-painting workshop for the most daring ones!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On this special occasion, we want to thank all our pilots who have been involved during the development of the exoskeleton, trying our prototypes and giving us feedback to improve our technology. We also want to thank all the hospitals and rehabilitation clinics that have collaborated with us through all these years, trying new prototypes and conducting clinical trials to validate our exoskeleton. Thanks to Institut Guttmann, Heidelberg University Hospital, Hospital Asepeyo Sant Cugat, European Neuroscience Center (CEN), Sint Maartensliniek Hospital, Hobbs Rehabilitation, Vall d\u2019Hebron, Hospital Parapl\u00e9jicos de Toledo, and many more.
