Our team

 

The history of Life Science Robotics

“I was determined to find a solution which, the first time around, could eliminate the healthcare workers’ pain as a result of heavy lifting”, expressed Lasse Thomsen.
2013
The birth of an idea

The idea of ROBERT® came about an ordinary Tuesday evening where the founder, Lasse Thomsen, and his wife talked about the challenges in her work as a nurse at Aalborg University Hospital. Healthcare workers experience daily challenges as heavy lifting in relation to rehabilitation of patients.

2014
Official partnership

Lasse Thomsen, as CEO and founder of Robert ApS, joined efforts with the first project manager, Joachim Kristensen, in order to develop ROBERT®. Joachim’s background as a physiotherapist added valuable knowledge about the significance and the consequences of rehabilitation.

2015
Entrepreneurial prize at CareWare fair

Robert ApS was nominated the entrepreneurial company of the year 2015 within the field of welfare innovation. The judges’ decision was based on which finalist had the most potential for growth.

2017
A growing team

Several members of the team came on board in 2017 and gave a great contribution to the development of ROBERT®: Rune Kristensen as CTO, Fridel Laursen as Clinical Project Manager, and Firas Amin as Lead Software Engineer.

2018
Great developments

3 new professional investors came on board in 2018. Lasse Thomsen stepped down as CEO and Keld Thorsen joined the company as new CEO and shareholder.

2018
Official CE-certification

In September 2018, the company was ISO 13485 certified and ROBERT® was approved as a Class IIa medical device in compliance with the medical device directive (93/42/EEC)

2018
From Robert to Life Science Robotics

2019
