One of the first companies to partner with the Novartis Biome back in 2018, Hemex Health launches a new portable diagnostic platform that could change the way sickle cell disease is tested, and offer a model for developing point of care tests for a range of diseases in low-resource settings.

Hemex Health was founded in 2016 to bring the power of advanced technology to the point of need. Its break-through diagnostic tools aimed at detecting sickle cell disease and malaria, shows the power of coming together to innovate and co-develop digital solutions at scale.
