Project description

Within GluCARE we will validate in-vitro a novel continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system and leverage its valorization. The objective is to establish a spin-off company. This will be realized in two steps:

In GluCARE1.0 (this application), we will demonstrate the technical feasibility of our CGM system and prepare the business plan ; In GluCARE2.0 (subsequent project module) we will validate the operational CGM systems in-vitro and implement the business plan
