Who We Are
Since 2011, The Aebli Group has been at the forefront of recognizing and honoring innovation and working with the companies and individuals that have been creating game-changing technologies, products, and services. It only made sense to use that experience to work with companies and their leadership to create an awards program that really meant something, created distinction, and created tangible assets that show social proof that these ideas have merit in the market.
If your company is changing the world of MedTech or Healthcare through innovation or leadership you’ve never had a better chance to be TAG'D!!
Every submission for the 2025 TAG Awards will be individually evaluated by the TAG Awards judging panel.
