The company's continued efforts in R&D, both in-house and through partnerships with leading academic institutions, have resulted in a strong and unique IP base.
Headquartered in The Netherlands, Nucletron delivers customized solutions to more than 3,000 institutions in more than 120 countries, equating to global sales of euro 120 million ($160 million), with operating profit levels that rank in the upper quartile of the industry.

The supervisory board of Nucletron will be chaired by Rob Westerhof, who has held senior positions in Asia and in the USA for Philips Medical Systems and Philips Electronics. Commenting on the spin-off, Westerhof stated, "I am excited to join Nucletron's supervisory board. Being involved in the medical business for more than 15 years in various positions throughout the world, I trust that I can make a contribution. Nucletron represents a strong brand in the world of oncology and related areas, and there are excellent opportunities for expanding our market share.
