For a hearing future
Comprehensive information in one place
This website aims to provide users with a better roadmap between diagnosis, fitting and life with a hearing implant by providing comprehensive information, in short: to create ONE platform for people of all ages and their families where all relevant questions about living with hearing loss are answered.
Project team
Birgitt
As the mother of two adult CI sons, I know how important it is to be as well informed as possible as an affected person or family member so that life can succeed despite a hearing impairment. This project is therefore a matter close to my heart for families who are just starting out on this journey.
Philipp
My professional projects allow me to combine personal contact with users of hearing implants with my work as a web designer. The implementation of this website was therefore a particularly enjoyable task for me because I recognized the need for comprehensive information for those affected.
Kathi
With my involvement in the project, I want to give those affected the chance to enjoy a self-determined life in a world full of sounds and noises. As a mother of three children with normal hearing, it is particularly important to me to be able to offer all those affected the same opportunities that my children enjoy.
Initiated by MED-EL
The Austrian hearing implant manufacturer MED-EL has been providing hearing-impaired and deaf people with state-of-the-art hearing systems for over three decades and now has over 200,000 users worldwide. However, the family-owned company also knows that rehabilitation, good educational support and knowledge of the right places and contacts are important additional cornerstones on the path to hearing. It was therefore important for MED-EL to initiate and implement this project.
