About Us
CESPU Diagnóstico, S.A., is a company of the CESPU Group, a Higher Education Institution that has been training highly qualified health professionals for over 40 years. In 2012, the notoriety in the research produced in the pathological anatomy and cytology field led to the creation of a startup of the CESPU Group (Targetalent), which was later renamed to CESPU Diagnóstico, with the objective of introducing a disruptive technology for the staining of cytology samples in the market.
Its core business is the research, production, and marketing of in vitro diagnostic medical devices.
