Company Description:
We have developed and are commercializing a patent-pending technology that seeks
to bring laboratory testing capabilities to consumers in a distinctive, easy to
use and affordable way through the use of smartphones such as iPhones and
Androids as well as other mobile devices. In tandem with this
effort, we are
developing a diabetes-related, cloud-based mobile health (mHealth) software
platform designed to facilitate patient insight into how to better manage their
diabetes. We were formed in August 2011 as a Delaware corporation.
We are initially applying our technology to address the more than $10 billion
estimated worldwide market for diabetic self-monitoring of blood glucose, or
SMBG, market. Diabetes is a disease where insufficient levels, or a total
absence, of the hormone insulin produces high levels of glucose in the
bloodstream, which can lead to long term adverse effects on a patient"s blood
vessels, which can lead to heart attack, stroke, high blood pressure, blindness,
kidney disease and nerve damage. As part of controlling blood sugar, many
patients must self- monitor their blood glucose levels using home testing kits
(called glucometers) and treat high and low blood sugar episodes accordingly to
avoid the complications from the disease.
Our first product, DarioTM, is a comprehensive, patent-pending system that
combines an all-in-one SMBG device consisting of a lancet (to obtain a blood
sample), a device-specific disposable test strip cartridge and a
smartphone-driven glucose reader adaptor, coupled with a smartphone app and
cloud-based data services. Roughly the size of a pack of gum, we believe that
