About ViCentra

ViCentra is an innovative medical device company based in Utrecht, The Netherlands. ViCentra focuses on the research and development, manufacturing and commercialization of a ground-breaking device for the management of diabetes.

Kaleido, the smallest and lightest insulin pump system currently available, is designed to help people with diabetes live life on their own terms:

"For us, super accurate insulin delivery and improved control are non-negotiables, but discretion, simplicity and choice is our way of helping you live life in your own way".

Driven by ViCentra's desire to be meaningfully different, Kaleido aims to reduce the impact that diabetes can have on daily life. Utilizing Bluetooth wireless technology, Kaleido infuses colour and choice into the market, networking its hybrid patch pumps and handsets into a broader family of easy-to-use products and data services to create a customer-focused, integrated diabetes support service.

With CE mark, in-house software development and manufacturing, ViCentra is setting its sights on expanding insulin pump usage by appealing to both first time and experienced insulin pump users in the Netherlands. At the same time, we are preparing for FDA approval expansion into additional territories and establishing partnerships in digitalization and connectivity.
