ZimVie Grants & Donations ZimVie provides educational grant funding and in-kind support to third-party educational, charitable, and research programs that promote scientific knowledge, medical advancement, and the delivery of effective healthcare. At ZimVie, we believe in the importance of working with other organizations to play a significant role in educating Healthcare Professionals (HCPs) and patients, providing charitable support to the community and supporting life-changing research. Request program should be submitted at least 60 days prior to the educational, charitable, or research program. Support may not be provided to individuals in private practice or in agreement to use, order, recommend, or purchase ZimVie products. Support for medical education events is generally limited to grants for non-ZimVie educational meeting expenses, facility usage, or product support for training events involving ZimVie products. IN-KIND EDUCATIONAL PRODUCT SUPPORT Support academic institutions with in-kind educational product support to advance educational and medical technology advancement learning experience for residents and pre-doctoral students.
