About Calmark
Calmark Sweden AB is a MedTech company that develops and sells a point-of-care (POC) analysis system for a more time- and cost-efficient diagnostics procedure of common medical conditions in newborns. The unique test platform consists of a portable instrument and test cassettes for various biomarkers. Market launch of the first test, Neo-Bilirubin began in 2020. In developed healthcare systems, the introduction of POC tests leads to large costs savings and shorter healthcare chains. In less developed healthcare systems, Calmark's products offers a support for diagnosis that does not exist today as access to hospital laboratories is often limited. Calmark aims to become a global leader and in the long-term offer all relevant tests for newborns regardless of where in the world they are born. In addition to products for newborns, Calmark also sells a POC test for assessing the severity of covid-19. The B-share is listed on the Spotlight Stock Market and is traded under the name CALMA B.
