Abiomics Europe Ltd.
„Advanced Biostatistics and Intelligence for the Omics”

Abiomics Europe Ltd. is a technology startup company that was founded in 2009 by bioinformatics and biomedical researchers along with investors. The cooperation between the Semmelweis University, Department of Genetics, Cell- and Immunobiology and the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Department of Measurement and Information Systems started in 2005 and led to the establishment of the company.

The 5 years of cooperation and joint projects made it clear that modern life science research and development is not possible anymore without advanced information technology support. The GenaGrid consortium was founded in 2008 with the support of the National Office for Research and Technology when new academic and industry partners joined the research group and aims to develop various bioinformatics services. Abiomics Europe Ltd. is the company responsible for the utilization for the intellectual properties of the consortium and has all the exclusive rights for the developed technologies. Abiomics Europe drives the business development, market research and marketing activities for the consortium.

The GenaGrid research group and Abiomics Europe employs almost 30 informaticians and biomedical researchers. The group engages the technologies and software in Asthma and ALL research.
