Avelios has set itself the goal of digitalizing and optimizing processes in hospitals. the startup founded in 2020 a complete hospital information system (HIS) has been developed. This operating system for intelligent patient care, which is based on the working practices of doctors and nurses, aims to reduce documentation costs and intelligently network patient data across sector boundaries.
The Munich-based startup's platform covers the full scope of a HIS—from treatment documentation and administrative processes to a patient portal. The platform adheres to the highest data protection and security standards. All data is stored exclusively in highly secure data centers in Europe or directly in the customer's local infrastructure.

These exceptional founders and their team are delivering the modern operating system our healthcare system deserves."
