Esaote launches new global website

Esaote, one of the world’s leading medical imaging manufacturers, has launched a new global website – www.esaote.com. The site represents an entirely new customer experience and is the highlight of many new innovations aimed at supporting clinicians and corporate customers across the globe.

The website launch comes a year after the appointment of Esaote’s new CEO, Carlos Alonso. “The global market for medical imaging is evolving fast,” said Mr Alonso. “Innovation means ever greater potential for imaging across the clinical setting – not just as a diagnostic tool but also for clinical intervention and real-time follow-up.

“Building on Esaote’s reputation for technological innovation and quality, we have recently undergone a significant reorganisation of the business as we commit to putting the customer at the centre of everything we do.”
“Our new website demonstrates the commitment to succeed in a global market place. Through it we can better provide clinicians and corporate customers with the resources and clinical solutions they need.”
Esaote targets an acceleration of market share within US, China and key European markets, whilst also making key investments in growth markets such as the Nordics, Australia and South America. Key markets can expect local language versions of the new website to go live throughout summer 2014.


WEBSITE FEATURES
The new site has been built on an entirely new platform. Optimised for a fast and responsive user experience on any device from desktop to smart-phone, the site quickly leads the browser to a wealth of relevant content.
