-Seasoned Executive with Proven Track Record in International Pump Launches to Accelerate Global Adoption of User Friendly, Affordable Patch Pumps
SAN DIEGO, CA, CA / ACCESS Newswire / October 6, 2025 / Modular Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ: MODD) ("Modular Medical" or the "Company"), a leader in innovative insulin delivery technology targeting the $3 billion adult "almost-pumpers" diabetes market with easy to learn and operate user-friendly, affordable patch pumps, today announced the appointment of David Bosshard as Head of International Operations. With two decades of expertise in scaling similar tubeless insulin delivery systems across Europe and beyond, Mr. Bosshard will drive Modular Medical's global strategy, leveraging his success in launching blockbuster products, such as Insulet's Omnipod and Ypsomed's YpsoPump, to position the Company for international growth in the rapidly expanding wearable diabetes technology sector.
Bosshard's appointment comes at a pivotal time, as Modular Medical advances its next-generation Pivot insulin delivery system through the U.S. and CE Mark regulatory processes, building on the Company's U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") cleared MODD1 pump to enhance accessibility for underserved diabetes patients worldwide. His deep experience will accelerate the international rollout of the Pivot product, as the Company seeks to access international markets and unlock new revenue streams in the underserved, over $3 billion insulin pump market to drive long-term shareholder value.
Key highlights of Bosshard's expertise and strategic impact:
Led the successful launch of Insulet's Omnipod patch pump in Europe at Ypsomed AG from 2010 to 2017, growing the user base to nearly 70,000, while overseeing business operations for 13 country affiliates, including product distribution and marketing support; and
As product area leader, spearheaded the 2017 launch of YpsoPump, driving CGM and AID integrations to deliver disruptive therapy outcomes; the system has since been distributed in over 20 countries across Europe, Australia and Canada.
"David's addition to our team is a game-changer for Modular Medical's international ambitions," said Jeb Besser, CEO of Modular Medical. "His success in scaling the Omnipod and launching YpsoPump with international users aligns perfectly with our mission to make affordable, intuitive patch pumps accessible worldwide. We're excited to harness his expertise in launching our Pivot product internationally, as we seek to access high-growth markets outside the U.S. and evaluate each for direct and indirect distribution opportunities."
Modular Medical is dedicated to revolutionizing insulin delivery with affordable, easy-to-use solutions for the millions of "almost-pumpers" who avoid traditional pumps due to complexity and cost. For more information on its insulin delivery system technology, visit www.modular-medical.com.
