BVS

Bioventus Inc.

A maker of orthobiologic therapies that help the body heal itself, Bioventus Inc. sells the EXOGEN ultrasound bone-healing system and Durolane joint injections for osteoarthritis, giving patients non-surgical options for orthopedic care. Founded in 2012 in Durham, North Carolina, the company was spun out of medical-technology firm Smith & Nephew. Its name blends the Greek word for life with the Latin for wind — fittingly, EXOGEN itself began as a separate company before joining the lineup.
