A high-tech company for the production of robotic surgery equipment will invest over BGN 80 million in Parvomay, Southern Bulgaria. The company will build a modern production base, which will allow it to increase its production capacity of 3D endoscopes needed for interventions with the Da Vinci Assisted Surgery System. So far, they are produced in Germany.

More than 100 new jobs will be opened in the new production facility as their number is expected to grow to 300 within several years.
