TransMedics invests in PAD Aviation to build Europe's first organ transplant air logistics network.

TransMedics Group has made a strategic investment in PAD Aviation, a leading private aviation operator based in Germany, to establish a dedicated organ transplant air and ground logistics network across Europe. This move aims to replicate TransMedics' successful U.S. organ care system (OCS) model in Europe, enhancing the use of donor organs for patients with end-stage organ failure. PAD Aviation's flexible, 24/7 operations and modern fleet will support time-critical organ transport missions across the EU. This partnership is expected to improve organ transplant outcomes by increasing organ utilization and speeding delivery times.
