Established in 2019 in Dusseldorf, Germany by Dr. Mirko Stange, a scientist and entrepreneur, DxPx was created to address the underrepresentation of diagnostics in partnering conferences compared to other life sciences fields. DxPx addresses this need in the market and facilitates connections between companies and investors in Diagnostics, Digital Health, Precision Medicine, and Life Sciences Tools.

BGL joined DxPx as an organizing sponsor in its first year due to the firm’s deep experience across the diagnostics, research tools, lab equipment, and medical devices landscape, bringing valuable expertise in life sciences capital formation, technology strategy, corporate ventures, and mergers & acquisitions to DxPx participants. DxPx EU is now established as an annual destination conference for the Diagnostics & Research Tools industry in Europe.
