What LabGenetics does

LabGenetics (Laboratorio de Genética Clínica S.L.) is a privately held Spanish biotechnology laboratory founded in 2004 and headquartered in San Sebastián de los Reyes, Madrid. It provides genetic testing services across four product lines: clinical genetic diagnosis (NGS/exome panels covering 500+ clinically relevant genes with >99% coverage on most panels using Illumina NextSeq1000 sequencers), forensic genetics (informative and judicially valid paternity, kinship, genetic fingerprinting, and biological fluid detection), prenatal testing (NIPT+, QF-PCR, exome prenatal, chorionic villus and amniocentesis analysis), and ancestry testing (165 autosomal SNPs across 65 reference populations). The firm also offers genetic counseling, accredited judicial expert witness services, a DNA database for stolen-baby identification, and turnkey laboratory implementation projects for international clients.

The company operates a hybrid B2B/B2C go-to-market, selling per-test services to Spanish public and private hospitals and clinics (institutional B2B), to the Spanish courts and legal system (judicially valid forensic reports), to individuals (paternity, ancestry, home-collection kits), and to non-profits such as the Association for the Recovery of Historical Memory. Revenue is generated on a one-time per-test basis (€60–€250 list pricing), supplemented by project-based professional services for international turnkey lab builds. Distribution is anchored by the Madrid headquarters, a network of collaborating sample-collection centers across Spain, home-collection DTC kits, and a corporate website (labgenetics.es) with both Spanish and English storefronts.

Operationally, LabGenetics positions itself on regulatory credibility and quality: it was the first genetics unit in the Community of Madrid to receive definitive health authorization (Health License CS13269), holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ENAC-accredited ISO 15189 certifications, has earned consecutive EMQN Performance Certificates (2022–2025), and is pursuing ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation for forensic genetics. Its staff includes accredited judicial experts and members of ISFG, GHEP-ISFG, AEGH, ESHG, and AEDP. The company is privately financed with no disclosed external funding, and revenue, headcount trends, and ownership structure are not publicly disclosed.

Revenue model

1. Genetic Diagnostic Testing Services: One-time diagnostic genetic testing services for hereditary diseases, including NGS panels, exome sequencing (CES, WES), and individual gene testing. Revenue generated per test based on complexity and type of analysis requested by healthcare professionals or individuals.
2. Forensic Genetics Services: Paternity tests (informative and judicial), kinship testing, genetic fingerprinting, and biological fluid detection. Tests can be anonymous or with legal validity for court use. Pricing varies by test type and validity requirements.
3. Prenatal Testing: Prenatal genetic testing including NIPT+, QF-PCR, and prenatal paternity tests. Can be invasive (amniocentesis, chorionic biopsy) or non-invasive. Revenue per test based on methodology and urgency.
4. Ancestry Testing: Biogeographic ancestry testing using 165 autosomal genetic markers. Includes maternal and paternal lineage studies. Standard price of €250 per test plus €50 for sample collection at collaborating center.
5. Turnkey Laboratory Services: Technology transfer and implementation of molecular biology laboratories outside Spain, specializing in human genetic analysis. Includes laboratory design, equipment, training, and technical support. Project-based revenue for custom implementations.
6. Genetic Counseling Services: Preconceptional, prenatal, and postnatal genetic counseling services provided by qualified experts for patients and healthcare professionals.
7. Expert Witness Services: Technical advice and expert reports for legal proceedings including interpretation of DNA evidence, counter-expert opinions, and court testimony by accredited judicial experts.
