Our passion is driving medical innovation forward.
Virtonomy team is headquartered in Munich, Germany, and combines an interdisciplinary team of experts in medical engineering, image and data processing, visualization and clinical practice.
Our history
Virtonomy was founded by Dr. Simon J. Sonntag and Wen-Yang Chu in 2019. Dr. Sonntag spent approximately 10 years in the medical device industry and experienced first-hand the challenges of medical device development, regulatory assessment, and clinical practice.
