Novogenia GmbH is a biotechnology firm that provides medical and lifestyle genetic tests, blood analysis services, personalized nutrition supplements, and cosmetics.[1][2] In 2022, it was fined together with the ministry of health of Austria for illegal government grants.[3] In 2021, Novogenia went public on the Munich stock exchange under its parent company Darwin AG.[4]

History[edit]

Novogenia GmbH was founded in 2009 in Salzburg, Austria.[5] The company shortly got a license from the Austrian government to conduct medical genetic testing and swiftly ventured into preventive genetic testing.[6][7]

In 2012, Novogenia GmbH acquired Genosense Diagnostics, an Austrian competitor based in Vienna.[8][9] In 2018, the company introduced Deep Genome AI, which uses artificial intelligence to interpret and store genetic research data, accelerating the development of gene-based products.[10][11] In 2019, firm's operations expanded due to the COVID-19 crisis,[12][13] emerging as Austria's largest COVID-19 laboratory, conducting up to 275,000 tests daily and producing millions of medical devices for sample collection.[14][15][16][17]

In December 2021, Novogenia GmbH underwent an Initial Public Offering (IPO) on the Munich stock exchange under DARWIN AG, a biotechnology group of companies.[18][19]

Overview[edit]

Firm's laboratory conducts genetic and blood analyses, producing personalized reports from these assessments.[20][21] The laboratory handles a peak load of 275,000 samples daily and has conducted over 35 million PCR analyses.[22][23] Also, the laboratory offers gene and allergy analyses, employing advanced analytical techniques like microfluidics and DNA microarrays.[24]
