Spiden has made remarkable scientific progress in non-invasive glucose sensing. Using advanced spectroscopy techniques in a portable device, its team has achieved a 9% MARD with individual calibration (Mean Absolute Relative Difference – the average difference to the gold-standard measurement). This achievement is the latest important step towards a calibration-free and miniaturized device for non-invasive glucose monitoring. Now, as the final step on its development path, Spiden has commenced measurements in diabetes centers in multiple countries, before aiming to launch its Spiden wearable that can automatically calibrate to its customers without any needle involved.

“This accomplishment reinforces our commitment to launching our own glucose monitoring wearable by the end of 2025, followed by expanding to additional biomarkers,” says Leo Grünstein Spiden’s Founder & CEO. “We aim to help customers around the world take control of their health through non-invasive access to real-time biomarker data and actionable, evidence-based insights to improve their well-being and longevity.”

On entering this new phase towards product launch, the following key executives are joining the Spiden leadership team, bolstering its capabilities in design and product development.

– Chester Chipperfield, joining as Chief Design Officer, brings a wealth of experience from his previous roles as Head of Special Projects at Apple and Global Creative Director at Tesla. Chester’s expertise in innovative design and launching category defining products will be instrumental in shaping Spiden’s wearable into something that is both highly functional and desirable.

– Ismene Grohmann, has been appointed as Chief Product Officer. With her background as Head of Product for Abbott’s Consumer Biowearables and Global Innovation Director Personal Health, Ismene will lead Spiden’s product vision, strategy and execution, ensuring that Spiden’s solutions meet the highest standards of product-market fit, user-centricity and efficacy for its customers.

– Prof. Fernando Perez-Cruz, will be joining Spiden full time as Head of Machine Learning Research & AI. His background as Chief Data Scientist at the Swiss Data Science Center (joint venture between EPFL and ETH Zurich) uniquely positions him to shape Spiden’s advanced data analysis and AI capabilities.

Furthermore, Spiden has finished 2023 with a successfully secured $15 million convertible note, surpassing its initial target of $10 million, and bringing Spiden’s total funding since inception to >$40m. This achievement reflects the strong support from its existing investors and Board members, as well as new investors. This funding will help Spiden finalize its initial, now 6-year long phase of R&D, aimed at cracking complete calibration-free monitoring, as well as securing a pathway to miniaturization of its portable product to a wearable format.
