RR Technologies GmbH is a healthcare technology company dedicated to enhancing the safety and independence of seniors through innovative solutions, primarily featuring the Patronus watch and app. Founded in 2021 by Ben Staudt and Tim Wagner, headquartered in Berlin, Germany, RR Technologies GmbH specializes in digitizing healthcare solutions for the elderly. In January 2026, Patronus raised EUR 11 million in venture funding led by 3TS Capital Partners, with participation from Grazia Equity, Singular, Burda Principal Investments, Adjacent, NAP, and Unternehmertum Venture Capital. The founders of the company, Ben Staudt and Tim Wagner, have established a solid groundwork for growth in the health tech sector.

RR Technologies GmbH focuses on providing innovative healthcare technology solutions designed specifically for seniors, addressing the pressing issue of digitization in the healthcare sector. Their core offering is the Patronus watch, which enhances traditional home emergency call systems by integrating multiple functionalities into a single device. This watch operates throughout Germany and pairs with a complimentary Patronus app, ensuring users maintain a high level of security and allowing their relatives to monitor their well-being throughout the day. The product serves a diverse clientele, primarily targeting elderly individuals and their families who seek to enhance safety and independence.

By combining technology with user-friendly design, Patronus aims to cater to the growing need for reliable healthcare solutions for seniors. RR Technologies GmbH's revenue model revolves around direct-to-consumer sales, primarily through the distribution of their flagship product, the Patronus watch, alongside its accompanying app. The company engages in both one-time sales transactions and potential subscription models for ongoing app services, enabling continuous customer engagement. Clients include seniors and their families, who invest in these safety solutions to ensure peace of mind and enhanced independence for elderly loved ones.

Given the nature of the product, the company directly markets to consumers, ensuring a streamlined purchasing process for its customers. The pricing structure reflects the premium nature of the device and its associated services, underlining the company’s commitment to improving the quality of life for its users. The company will use the January 2026 funding to accelerate growth and expand senior safety technology while developing an integrated artificial intelligence companion.
