Otto Bock - The Client

Otto Bock is a company that produces artificial limbs, wheelchairs, orthopaedic tools, etc. It is probably the best company worldwide in their field, especially when it comes to prosthesis. If one sees runners at the Paralympics, one can be assured that those artificial legs were produced by Otto Bock. From that point of view, the company is absolutely top notch.

All the knowledge I have dates back to the early 2000s, hence things might have changed. The company is privately owned and situated in Lower Saxony at the border to former East Germany. It is basically in no man's land.

We hardly ever saw the owner, but he had an executive team running the show and the project as steering committee - first 2 directors and then a further one who was newly hired.
