Zurich, Switzerland, September 4, 2026 – Lilekang, a digital platform for the senior care equipment rental value chain, today announced strategic partnership agreements with several leading European medical and rehabilitation organizations, including Rehazentrum Valens in Switzerland, the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine at Charite – Universitatsmedizin Berlin in Germany, and Motek Medical in the Netherlands. The agreements mark the European launch of Lilekang’s business model, which combines AI-enabled senior care equipment rentals with end-to-end operations management.
Drawing on the technology and equipment strengths of its strategic partner, DIH Holding US, Inc., Lilekang will provide European partners with AI-enabled rehabilitation equipment on a rental basis. The portfolio includes the Lokomat lower-limb rehabilitation robot, the Armeo upper-limb rehabilitation system, and the Andago overground gait and balance trainer. DIH is a global provider of AI-enabled senior care technology. Its core products are manufactured in Switzerland and the Netherlands and have been widely validated and adopted in the European market.
As a DIH-certified Center of Excellence, Rehazentrum Valens brings internationally recognized expertise in neurological and orthopedic rehabilitation. Together, Rehazentrum Valens and Lilekang will explore a combined equipment-rental and clinical-rehabilitation service model that can reduce upfront equipment costs for rehabilitation providers and make advanced rehabilitation technology more accessible.
A Lilekang executive leading the company’s international business said: “Europe is a global center for rehabilitation medicine, but the high purchase cost of premium rehabilitation equipment can limit service upgrades at smaller rehabilitation providers and community senior care centers. Lilekang’s rental model – no equipment purchase, flexible rentals, and fully managed service – was built to address that challenge. By bringing together Lilekang’s operating capabilities and DIH’s leading technology, we can help more European healthcare providers adopt AI-enabled rehabilitation equipment with a lower barrier to entry and benefit more older adults.”
Lilekang plans to register its European subsidiary in Zurich shortly. Its first 500 AI-enabled rehabilitation and assistive devices have arrived in Europe and will be deployed with the first partner organizations in Switzerland, Germany, and the Netherlands. The company has also launched a European Business Partner program, offering local entrepreneurs the opportunity to invest in rental equipment asset packages.
