The EIB funding has already enabled Mobidiag to finalize, launch and commercialize its Novodiag® molecular diagnostic system and two assays for detection of gastrointestinal infections (Novodiag® C. difficile and Novodiag® Bacterial GE+ ). The final tranche will enable the Company to continue growing its product portfolio, accelerate the development of further assays for the Novodiag® system and enhance its manufacturing capabilities, as well as continuing to facilitate Mobidiag’s commercial expansion into additional markets.
Tuomas Tenkanen, CEO of Mobidiag, commented, "Thanks to the EIB’s continued support and endorsement of our strategy, Mobidiag has received the resources needed to progress our state-of-the-art platforms and assays through to commercialization, building significant value. The EIB funding has been critical in enabling us to reach a number of operational and technical milestones that are crucial to our development as a Company, including the implementation of a high capacity Novodiag® cartridge manufacturing line, a cutting-edge automation platform developed specifically for Mobidiag, which has added significant upscaling capacity.”
