Our Story
The Johner Institute New Zealand Ltd. was founded in 2021 as a subsidiary of the Johner Institute GmbH, a company with a rich history dating back to 2005. Our parent company, the Johner Institute, is headquartered in Germany with offices in Switzerland, the United States and New Zealand. This global network allows us to tap into resources and expertise from Europe, the UK, the USA, Australia, and New Zealand.
Our journey began in 2005 when the Johner Institute was established in Germany, dedicated to advancing the understanding of regulatory affairs and Software as a Medical Device (SaMD). Over the years, we have expanded our services to encompass securing international regulatory approvals and facilitating knowledge transfer through our Medical Device University, seminars, and workshops.
In 2021, we reached a significant milestone when we crossed the threshold of 100 employees and began our partnership with prestigious institutions such as Harvard University. In New Zealand and Australia, our partnerships with innovative organizations such as Callaghan Innovation, the Digital Health Association (DHA), the Medical Technology Association of New Zealand (MTANZ), Health Informatics New Zealand (HiNZ), the German-New Zealand Chamber of Commerce Inc. (GNZCC), and the German-Australian Chamber of Industry and Commerce in Australia have further enriched our knowledge and expertise, allowing us to provide cutting-edge solutions to our clients in New Zealand and Australia.
With a focus on the future, we have embraced the digital transformation of regulatory approvals, working closely with organizations such as TÜV SÜD. As a part of our commitment to continuous improvement, we have designed and launched new study programs, like “Regulatory Affairs,” and expanded our offerings in areas such as artificial intelligence (AI) and IT security.
