Zimmer Biomet Romania has leased a space in the Paris office building within the Sema Parc business park, a project developed by River Development.
“Romania is one of the largest markets in Central and Eastern Europe and an important customer base for Zimmer Biomet. We made a great choice to open our first office in Romania within the Sema Parc. By the nature of what we do, we collaborate with surgeons, hospitals, clinics and universities to improve patient experiences and outcomes in Romania and to enhance the efficiency of their operations, which is why it was essential to choose an office that is accessible and highly connected to the city,” said Marian Isac, Country Manager at Zimmer Biomet Romania.
Zimmer Biomet Holdings was established in 1927, in the United States Indiana, has offices in 31 countries and operates across more than 100 countries. Worldwide, the Group has 17,000 employees and 5,000 in Europe.
The planned investments of EUR3.5 million will be geared towards logistical expenses (new offices, warehouse, etc.), building the local team and securing equipment stock. The company will move from distributor representation to direct representation, and this change will consist in expanding its product portfolio, medical education, providing and introducing a number of integrated digital and robotic technologies to the Romanian market.
At the same time, the Zimmer Biomet Institute, which provides world-class education for orthopaedic professionals, is also expanding its medical education offerings in Romania starting with 2023.
“We are delighted that for the opening of their first branch in Romania, Zimmer Biomet chose the Sema Parc. In our community they have all the benefits necessary for healthy growth and will be able to offer all their partners and customers the advantages of very good accessibility and a robust infrastructure that has proven its efficiency,” said Tina Vîrlan, Lease Manager at River Development.
