CIONIC’s Neural Sleeve 2 Recognized on TIME’s Best Inventions of 2025 Special Mentions List

CIONIC, a leading neurotech company with offices in Scotts Valley, is proud to announce that the Neural Sleeve 2 has been recognized as part of TIME’s Best Inventions of 2025 Special Mentions List. This significant honor comes just two weeks following the launch of the second-generation device.

The Neural Sleeve 2 was developed in direct response to real-world user needs and is powered by CIONIC's proprietary MultiStim technology. It is the first FDA-cleared wearable neurotech to seamlessly integrate functional muscle activation with relaxation of muscle spasms, effectively choreographing effortless movement for individuals with mobility challenges.

CIONIC was honored by TIME in 2023 for the original Neural Sleeve—and now again in 2025. The consecutive recognition by TIME underscores CIONIC's commitment to creating advanced, user-centric neuro-rehabilitation solutions. The Neural Sleeve 2 represents a major leap forward in wearable technology, offering a sophisticated and personalized approach to restoring movement and independence.

CIONIC’s CEO Jeremiah Robison extended his sincere gratitude for the recognition via Linkedin:

"Our mission at CIONIC has always been about more than building a single product for a single condition. From the earliest prototypes, built in the garage and tested by my daughter, I knew that reimagining mobility care wasn’t only about technology — it was about mindset. We wanted to change the culture of innovation in hashtag#medtech : not just to invent, but to model a new way of inventing.

That’s why we’re incredibly honored that the Neural Sleeve 2 is recognized as one of TIME's Best Inventions of 2025, just two years after making the list in 2023 with the original Neural Sleeve.

In an industry where product cycles are measured in decades, innovation rarely keeps pace with patient needs. Yet in consumer technology, we see both hardware and software updating at a blistering pace, growing capabilities and responding to user needs. There is no reason that this cannot be the norm in med tech as well.

On behalf of the entire Cionic team, thank you to our users, partners, investors and collaborators for helping us set a new pace of innovation for hashtag#MultipleSclerosis hashtag#SpinalCordInjury hashtag#CerebralPalsy and hashtag#StrokeSurvivors"

The Neural Sleeve 2 is currently available for individuals seeking to improve mobility lost due to conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis, Stroke, Cerebral Palsy, and others.
