The Estonian SME Self-diagnostics was one of two particularly promising European start-ups that EIT Health chose to invite to the Medtech Strategist Forum, which unites more than 450 leading key decision-makers and investors in Dublin, Ireland during 9-11 April 2019.
SelfDiagnostics is a medtech company, headquartered in Tallinn, Estonia, that produces medical self-tests.

The first product is a multi-test for sexually transmitted diseases.

SelfDiagnostics was joined by the French SME Aenitis at the investor’s forum. They were selected from a wide range of promising European start-ups by EIT Health Investor Network programme, and EIT Health funded their entrance ticket to the forum, valued at €2 000.
The Investor Network programme is an EIT Health Accelerator programme to enable international co-investments of venture capitalists, business angels networks and associations, family offices etc. to start-ups selected by EIT Health.
