Dr Nikhil Mamoria
Dr Nikhil Mamoria is a medical doctor and the Founder & CEO of Denovo Bioinnovations. His years of clinical experience, including service during the COVID pandemic, exposed him to the real challenges surgeons face in busy operating rooms, especially in hospitals with limited resources. At Denovo, he has led the development of several award-winning medical innovations, securing over 22 intellectual property filings supported by national agencies in India. Combining his medical background with practical problem-solving, he focuses on creating tools that make surgery easier, simpler, and safer. This experience uniquely positions him to design solutions that address both the needs of surgeons and the realities of healthcare systems.
Dr Mamoria has innovated the “SmartStitch™” platform technology to make wound closure easier, faster, and safer across laparoscopic, open, and trauma surgeries. Conventional laparoscopic instruments are rigid and restrict access, making suturing the most difficult step to learn, perform, and master. LapSure™, his flagship product under the SmartStitch™ technology, automates all 14 manual steps of laparoscopic suturing into just three clicks. Its ergonomic handle offers six degrees of freedom, enabling stitching in difficult-to-reach areas without extra effort. At its core, SmartStitch™ aims to make surgery easier, faster, safer, and more inclusive for surgeons and patients everywhere.
