Long waiting times will reduce significantly with rather efficient POC point-of-care tests, opposed to very lengthy and costly lab tests.

Would be good if Dr. Gino and team shortly release a presentation to update shareholders. No doubt there will be a lot of items to discuss after the recent developments.

Interesting to hear really. Do you have any additional information you can share perhaps?

A lot of information in this company presentation video dated 5th April this year:

Cost reduction and increased efficiency will become a big topic on the NHS agenda the coming years.

Genedrive's POCT point-of-care product solutions are suited to help to save the NHS a significant amount of money every year by being way more efficient and time reducing.

Key area is to reduce ‘bed blocking’ or improve early hospital discharge, again in line with Genedrive's point-of-care products.

GDR POCT fits rather well into this picture imo.

There are many reasons why Genedrive POCT will soon be the preferred testing method above old fashioned, expensive and very time consuming laboratory tests imo.

- Accurate and efficient proven testing method

- Significantly faster results than with lab tests

* Less than 1hr opposed to many days or even weeks

- Improved cost efficiency

* Saving the NHS Millions GBP annually

- Light portable devices which can be carried anywhere

- No specific cold storage requirements

- User simplicity with consistent output

Genedrive's blockbuster device

And he has been board chair at LifeArc now for 2 1/2 years, part of the strategy to spend up to £1.3bn by 2030 on new medical innovation startups as I understood.

Ian was appointed a Director on 24 November 2014 and as Non-Executive Chairman on 11 May 2015. He is currently Chair of Trustees for LifeArc, a philanthropic fund looking to invest £1.3 billion making life science life changing.

Could be as early as next week.
