Please visit Confrérie Clinique's site at www.confrerie-clinique.com Willem Kort has been involved in creative advertising & healthcare communications for the last 35 years. Apart from "traditional" development of printed media, he pioneered with electronic media and established, based upon principles of multi media technology, an interactive video network for doctors, a global area network for data communications, and a range of EDC products, encompassing classical RDE (the Q.U.E.S.T. System) and automated rapid data capture from hardcopy CRFs through scan & fax imaging technologies, including handprint (intelligent character) recognition and EDC by Voice through clinical Speech Recognition (cSR) technology. Since 1997, Willem Kort has been dedicated to automated, objective measurement of therapy compliance (adherence), and conceived & patented & developed - in concertation with his business partner Jos Geboers - OtCM™ (Objective therapy Compliance Measurement, 2005), MEDICCINE™ (Therapy Compliance Controlled, 2011) and MEDICCINET™ (2011) using RFID/NFC techniques, as well as miniaturized battery-free, photovoltaic (autonomous) applications. The latter technology can be applied industrially into medication blisterline packaging machines. Kort is experienced in conducting international business. Present Day ... Confrérie Clinique BV & SA - Willem's and Jos' NL and CH based company - is on the brink of industrialisation of MEDICCINE™ technology onto diverse media as medication blisters, medication bottles, injection syringes, vials and blistercards (MDS). The era of objective adherence measurement right out of the standard, industrially produced medication package, has commenced. Also, an innovative spin-off of the patented MEDICCINE™ technology is TEMPOS™ (Safe-Rx™ Cards), a fully integrated system to monitor environmental temperature vis-a-vis the transportation and storage of (bio)pharmaceutical medication, i.e. thermal energy restricted goods.
