KI Science Park Business Breakfast October 2026

From KI Research to International Newborn Screening – Building ImmunoIVD

How do you turn research into a diagnostics company whose products become part of newborn screening programmes across international markets?

October 15 at 8.00 am, we welcome Erna Domsgen, CEO of ImmunoIVD.

At this Business Breakfast, Erna Domsgen, will share the story of building a research-based company in a highly regulated field – from its scientific roots at Karolinska Institutet to developing and bringing newborn screening solutions to international markets.

Today, ImmunoIVD develops molecular screening assays for rare diseases including SCID, SMA and XLA, with its SPOT-it™ screening solutions used in national newborn screening programmes across Europe.

Erna will reflect on the choices, challenges and lessons along the way: navigating regulatory requirements and tenders, and building the team while scaling up production.

Join us for a candid conversation about turning science into products, building a company and learning along the way.
