The award-winning Dexcom G7 CGM has earned 22 international design awards—and counting.

The Dexcom G7 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System was designed first and foremost to empower people with diabetes to better manage their health. Its effective design and innovative features did not come easily or quickly. After more than 7 years in direct development on top of several more decades of research, Dexcom G7 was finally introduced to patients in February of 2023.

Dexcom CEO, Kevin Sayer, expands on G7. “When we set out to design Dexcom G7, our goal was simple: to make the most powerful, easy-to-use CGM available for people with diabetes, whether they have type 1 or type 2. Dexcom G7 delivers squarely on that promise.”

It’s no wonder its design has been recognized by organizations around the world. Beyond its potential to help millions of people, Dexcom G7 has raised the bar on what amazing design can do.

“There is a reason that Dexcom is the #1 recommended CGM brand,” said Kevin Sayer. “For more than a decade, we’ve pioneered generation after generation of sensing technology that consistently delivers improved accuracy, reliability, and a simpler user experience, giving people greater control of their diabetes.”

This sentiment is evident in the vast array of awards and honors the Dexcom G7 system has garnered in its first few months on the market, as seen below:
