Phoenix MedCare, New Zealand's largest supplier of diagnostics tests for pregnancy, is now bringing SwimCount to New Zealand. It is sold in leading pharmacies nationwide.
In 2010 they set out to create a a home test that could give valid results on male fertility (sperm quality). The existing home tests only measured sperm quantity so didn’t provide a reliable answer on male fertility – more important was how many of the sperm could swim.
MotilityCount Aps was formally established in 2011 and the company welcomed professional investors in the form of SEED Capital (Denmark's largest early-stage venture capital fund). The product went on to win first prize for innovation at the 2011 Hi11 trade show and 2013 MotilityCount got through the EVC HealthTech semi-finals before reaching the final at the European Venture Summit. In 2014 MotilityCount received further financing to commence production. Knudsen Plast (specialists in plastic moulding for healthcare products) became the company's production partner and the Danish Market Development Fund helped MotilityCount to start production of the tests.
It’s simple and takes only 30 minutes to receive results! Measures the concentration of sperm that can swim (known as motile sperm). Easy-to-use home test that gives a fast and reliable answer on male fertility.
