Info
Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics (FIND)
EU Transparency Register
158922541572-78 First registered on 01 Mar 2021
Goals / Remit
We are a global non-profit organization driving innovation in the development and delivery of diagnostics to combat major diseases affecting the world’s poorest populations.
Diagnostics often do not exist, are inaccessible, or cost too much. They remain under-resourced and overlooked, despite being pivotal for guiding the best treatment for individual patients; for preventing the spread of disease and antimicrobial resistance; and for enhancing surveillance for early disease detection and monitoring.
With priorities aligned to those of the global public health community, we turn complex diagnostic challenges into simple solutions through unique partnerships with the public, private and non-profit sectors.
Our work bridges R&D to access: we have deep technical and practical experience in the definition of needs, development of fit-for-purpose products...Main EU files targeted
EU legislative proposals or policies we will engage with and advocate will relate to global health, international development, research & development, scientific innovation, human rights & gender issues, and the role of the EU and its member states in all of the above, as well as its implications and interactions with low and middle income countries (LMICS).
Specifically, policy areas we will be involved with: the EU’s Global Approach on R&I, the new EU strategy with Africa and the EU communication on global health.
Specific EU mechanisms and entities we have been and will be interacting with and aiming to engage with and advocate with include the Joint Undertakings Partnerships (such as EDCTP3), Innovative Medicines Initiative, HERA, the EU4HEALTH programme and Horizon Europe.Address

Our many partners include public, government donors, philanthropic organizations, commercial companies, academic and research institutions, international public health organizations (including non-governmental organizations and foundations), health ministries and disease control programmes.

Meetings
Meetings
1 meetings found. Download meetings
The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
