GIN Oy delivers a Point of Care diagnostics manufacturing line to Sweden

Global Innovation Network Oy delivers a Point of Care manufacturing and assembly line for Sigolis AB to Uppsala, Sweden. Sigolis is manufacturing a sensor head for a device to detect skin cancer (Maligna Melanoma). The automated manufacturing and assembly line will be delivered during the second half of 2013 for the final assembly of the sensor.
