Recognition of the Ukrainian startup knopka at CES 2024

According to Міністерство Здоров'я: The Ukrainian startup knopka received global recognition at the CES 2024 exhibition, where it was awarded the Innovation Awards in the Digital Health category. The system, developed by Ukrainian engineers in 2019, is used in medical institutions across Ukraine for calling doctors and recording response times. It has become part of the Top 100 Rising Ukrainian Startups 2026 catalog, published by the Ukrainian Startup Fund in collaboration with Techosystem and Vector.

Effectiveness and implementation of the system

The knopka system is already implemented in several dozen medical institutions throughout Ukraine. During its use, there have been over 37,500 calls in the 'red zone'. The average response time to these calls was 4 minutes and 31 seconds, indicating the high efficiency of the system in providing medical assistance. Additionally, knopka creates an event archive and analyzes the speed of assistance, which helps improve medical processes.

The startup has also initiated two pilot implementations in European Union countries, opening new opportunities for the development and adaptation of the system at the international level. Recognition at CES confirms the potential of Ukrainian startups in the field of medical technologies and their ability to introduce innovations on the global stage.

The recognition of the knopka startup at the international CES 2024 exhibition reflects the growing role of Ukrainian technology companies in the field of medical innovations.

The success of the system not only highlights the achievements of the national medical sector but also opens new horizons for international expansion, which can positively impact the development of medical services in Ukraine and beyond. The pilot implementations in the EU demonstrate interest in Ukrainian technologies and the potential for their integration into international healthcare systems.
