About Vi Centra

Worldwide, over 30 million people with diabetes are insulin dependent. This means they need insulin to manage their blood glucose levels. They can either give themselves multiple daily injections, or use an insulin pump, which administers insulin on a continuous basis around the clock.

At Vi Centra, we’re on a mission to design an insulin pump that delivers not just a best-in-class performance, but also gives our users an experience that empowers and excites them. Something a bit different from the usual medical experience!

It’s simple really: people with diabetes are people – not patients.

We want our users to wear their Kaleido proudly. Its size makes Kaleido discreet and easy to wear, so Kaleidoers can forget about diabetes (for a while, at least!) and focus on what truly matters - living life on their own terms!

We are CE marked, with in-house development and manufacturing, a state-of-the-art HQ, and a diverse and energetic team hailing from over 30 countries worldwide! We’re backed by heavyweight investors like EQT, INKEF, and Invest-NL, all helping us to launch our rocket ship journey and forge a steady course.

We’d love you to travel with us.
