This company, established since 2015 in the Science Park, is dedicated to the sale in the Spanish market of international advances in the field of molecular and genetic diagnosis. The recognition in this category means to Bemygene the delivery, by the Consellería of Sustainable Economy, Productive Sectors, Trade and Work, of 5,000 euros. "We are a startup born of professionals educated at the University of Valencia, Nowadays te company is in a growth and expansion stage, so this award can be an aid to fulfill our objectives" explains its CEO, **Teresa Valdés**, who saw in the call "the opportunity to let us be known". The Bemygene team is made up of "**experts in genetics and molecular biology** with extensive experience in cientific research as well as in business. Our goal is to position ourselves as a reference company and create a brand of quality and trust in the field of molecular diagnostics", continues Valdés. ## **Reach the citizens** At the moment, Bemygene is in daily contact with hospitals and clinics of the whole national territory. At the same time it collaborates with research institutes "that trust in us". "These contacts," explains **Erika Manukyan**, Business Development Manager of the company, "allow us to know firsthand the market needs and establish business strategies that reach us to the end consumer". For the team, "genetics is a discipline that is increasingly present in our society; from this arises the importance of the creation of companies that can correctly introduce these advances and bring them closer to the population in order to the benefits can be reflected in them". The other two companies recognized in the top category of the competition are from the Universitat Piolitècnica de València.
