SureScreen Diagnostics receives prestigious awards
SURESCREEN DIAGNOSTICS is celebrating its achievement of being a double awardee of the King’s Award for Enterprise, in the categories of Innovation and International Trade.
The King’s Awards for Enterprise recognise outstanding achievements by UK businesses in the fields of innovation, international trade, sustainable development and promoting opportunity through social mobility. Awardees attend a Royal reception hosted by His Majesty the King at Buckingham Palace, and are presented with their award(s) by a Lord Lieutenant acting on behalf of the King.
Founded in 1996, Surescreen Diagnostics is a Derby-based point-of-care lateral flow rapid diagnostics manufacturer focused on bringing innovation to people around the world to improve lives through early and accurate diagnosis.
During the Covid pandemic, Surescreen Diagnostics developed the UK’s first antigen test which passed strict laboratory validation at Porton Down, to identify SARS-CoV-2. The test was designed to maximise sensitivity and specificity whilst allowing detection across multiple mutations of the virus across variants of concern. Due to its high accuracy and sensitivity, the test was used widely in the NHS Test and Trace Programme.
The company will be at SHW Live North on 23-24 January 24.
