Andreas Forsland, cofounder and CEO of Cognixion, presented the company's work on a non-invasive wearable brain-computer interface at MedTech World North America 2026 on June 5. He stated that the technology is designed to help people with conditions such as ALS, stroke, Parkinson's disease, cerebral palsy, and locked-in syndrome communicate. Forsland noted that Cognixion's wearable BCI has achieved a rate of 44 words per minute in clinical trials, which he described as faster than thumb texting. Forsland said the company has raised $29 million in seed capital and is opening a Series A round, with a first close fully subscribed and additional capacity available, closing in June. He cited a Morgan Stanley estimate of a $320 billion U.S. market by 2045 and stated that 24 million people in the United States qualify for such a system. Forsland added that Cognixion plans to launch its technology commercially in 2027, positioning it as a durable medical equipment provider with existing reimbursement coding for speech generating devices.
