Medux is delighted to be a partner of the European Para Championships to contribute to improving the freedom of movement, independence and enjoyment of people with movement limitations. René Martens, Chief Commercial Officer of Medux and four-time paralympic wheelchair basketball player, says: "With ten different paralympic sports, the EPC is a unique, international event in the Netherlands. Sport has brought me a lot personally and therefore I think it is great to help make the EPC possible with Medux and our brands. Getting as many people as possible to see and experience paralympic sports; that's what we're going for."
On behalf of the EPC, Jeroen Straathof says: "Medux is a leading party in the care domain that increases freedom of movement, independence and pleasure for people with movement limitations.

The multisport event not only offers the chance for athletes to compete for gold medals, but also to gain qualification points or direct qualification for the 2024 Paralympic Games in Paris.
