Fabi­an Jode­it stu­di­ed Mecha­ni­cal Engi­nee­ring with a focus on Medi­cal Engi­nee­ring at the Tech­ni­cal Uni­ver­si­ty of Munich (TUM). During his stu­dies, he initia­ted a medi­cal device deve­lo­p­ment pro­ject for reha­bi­li­ta­ti­on ser­vices in Ethio­pia, spen­ding six months in Addis Ababa. While over­see­ing this pro­ject and lec­tu­ring on medi­cal engi­nee­ring in low-inco­me count­ries at TUM, he gai­ned indus­try expe­ri­ence in Canada—first as a mecha­ni­cal engi­neer mana­ging 40 steel­wor­kers and later as a qua­li­ty engi­neer for speech reco­gni­ti­on soft­ware in auto­mo­ti­ve appli­ca­ti­ons.

Dri­ven by his deep com­mit­ment to impro­ving health­ca­re in low-inco­me count­ries, he retur­ned to TUM in 2018, estab­li­shing mul­ti­ple inter­na­tio­nal rese­arch pro­jects with part­ners in Gha­na, Ethio­pia, Mada­gas­car, and Isra­el. Through short- and long-term stays abroad, he deve­lo­ped medi­cal devices in pro­sthe­tics, ste­ri­liza­ti­on, and gyneco­lo­gy, always in clo­se col­la­bo­ra­ti­on with cli­ni­cal stake­hol­ders. Addi­tio­nal­ly, he foun­ded an Inte­gra­ted Trai­ning Cen­ter in Gha­na, fea­turing a medi­cal pla­s­tic was­te recy­cling line and 3D prin­ting faci­li­ties for health­ca­re appli­ca­ti­ons.

Bey­ond rese­arch, Fabi­an has orga­ni­zed annu­al con­fe­ren­ces in Gha­na, Ethio­pia, and Ger­ma­ny, brin­ging tog­e­ther indus­try lea­ders, aca­de­mics, and poli­cy­ma­kers. Lever­aging his exten­si­ve inter­na­tio­nal net­work, he now pro­vi­des con­sul­ting ser­vices for health­ca­re com­pa­nies tar­ge­ting emer­ging mar­kets and dis­tri­bu­tes sel­ect high-qua­li­ty medi­cal pro­ducts from Ger­ma­ny to various Afri­can count­ries.
