Incredible news!

Ingeborg and Erwin Hochmair have been awarded the prestigious 2026 Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering, which is awarded to nine engineers who have pioneered the design and development of modern neural interfaces that restore human function.

The MED-EL founders and cochlear implant pioneers have transformed thousands of lives through their groundbreaking work since 1975, when they started developing the world's first microelectronic cochlear implant.

Join us in congratulating them on this recognition! 👏

Behind every confident professional is a moment like this, learning, practicing, asking questions, and pushing to be better.

Through workshops and hands-on training, MED-EL continues to stand beside the people who make hearing care possible, not just with technology, but with knowledge, support, and shared purpose.

Because when professionals grow, countless lives get the chance to hear, connect, and belong.
