Preventive care means for us intervening very early in a life in individual in order to prevent being affected by diseases. Either before getting sick or developing conditions such as chronic diseases.
Our strength is in developing products and services that support organisations and healthcare providers with the right diagnostic tools, education materials, nutrition and investments support.
Because we believe that one of the most important way for preventive care consists in education and training people behaviour.
