It is recognised that the diagnostics market has a high prevalence of multi-national players, but it's heavily punctuated with innovative SME-size organisations making an enormous impact.  Manufacturing a majority of the point-of-care diagnostics tests, these companies provide solutions that contribute heavily to the collection for  necessary patient data for diagnosis. 

But we've found there are considerable barriers to the future development of these companies and many are struggling to compete within the home market.  By supporting the Voices of Industry campaign we acknowledge the contribution SMEs make to the diagnostics market, and the life sciences sector as a whole, and encourage support and investment to encourage their growth.
