Prix GALIEN

The Prix Galien internationally stands as the industry equivalent of the Nobel Prize in medical innovation.

Initially, the award originated in France, but thanks to the growing dedication of numerous companies to biomedical research and development, this esteemed prize is now granted in 15 different countries.

In Belgium, Artsenkrant/Le Journal du Médecin is the driving force behind the Prix Galien propelling innovation in the Belgian healthcare sector!

Since last year, the award has been divided into two events. The Prix Galien Medical Devices on 14 March 2024 and the Prix Galien pharmaceuticals that takes place on 21 May 2024.

This year’s Prix Galien for Medical Devices was awarded to IDEVAX and Intressa Vascular.
