What Instituto Bernabeu Madrid does

Instituto Bernabeu is a Spanish reproductive medicine clinic network founded in 1985 and headquartered in Alicante, operating nine clinics across Spain (Alicante, two in Madrid, Palma de Mallorca, Cartagena, Albacete, Elche, Benidorm) and Italy (Venice). The Madrid center specifically was established in 2017. The company provides comprehensive fertility services including IVF, egg donation, embryo adoption, artificial insemination, ICSI, the ROPA method for lesbian couples, single-woman motherhood, and fertility preservation, serving primarily individual consumers experiencing infertility, recurrent implantation failure, low ovarian reserve, endometriosis, or male-factor infertility.

The company's technology stack centers on a proprietary suite of genetic diagnostic tests under the IBgen brand (IBgen FIV for ovarian reserve pharmacogenetics, IBgen FOP analyzing 512 genes for premature ovarian failure, IBgen RIF for implantation failure, IBgen Sperm for male fertility, TCG for genetic compatibility), supported by advanced embryology techniques including AI-powered time-lapse incubators, array-CGH comprehensive chromosome screening, MACS sperm selection, and experimental ovarian rejuvenation (PRP and cortex fragmentation). A dedicated International AI Unit, formally launched in April 2024, consolidates AI/ML applications across the treatment pipeline, from embryo selection to pharmacogenetic optimization. In March 2026, the company announced a patented sperm identification plate claiming up to 10% improvement in embryo quality.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time treatment fees for assisted reproduction procedures, supplemented by diagnostic genetic testing and associated medical services (gynecology, obstetrics, urology, psychology). The company operates a direct-to-consumer model via in-person consultations, video consultations, 10-language support, financing options, and a pregnancy guarantee program (Única) offering refunds if treatment fails. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. In January 2026, Instituto Bernabeu was acquired by Eugin Group, an international fertility services provider, creating the second-largest fertility group in Spain.

Direct peers

• Fertty International: Barcelona-based IVF clinic with a strong egg-donation and international-patient focus; competes with Instituto Bernabeu in the Spanish fertility market and for cross-border medical tourism patients.
• CREA (Centro Médico de Reproducción Asistida): Valencia-based fertility clinic offering IVF, ICSI, and PGT services; geographic and service-line overlap with Instituto Bernabeu's Alicante HQ and broader Spanish network.
• ProcreaTec: Madrid fertility clinic specializing in IVF, PGT, and reproductive genetics; directly comparable to Instituto Bernabeu's Madrid offerings, particularly in advanced genetic testing and personalized treatment.
• Clinica Tambre: Madrid-based fertility clinic offering IVF, ICSI, egg donation, and advanced reproductive techniques; competes head-to-head with Instituto Bernabeu's Madrid (Velázquez/Ayala) clinics for Spanish and international patients.
• IVI-RMA Global (GeneraLife): Largest fertility clinic network in Spain and a leading global IVF operator; directly competes with Instituto Bernabeu across IVF, egg donation, and PGT services, and is now the larger Spanish fertility platform that the Eugin–Bernabeu combination is benchmarked against.

• Vida Fertility Institute: Multi-clinic Spanish fertility operator with locations in Madrid, Barcelona, and Alicante; competes directly with Instituto Bernabeu in IVF, egg donation, and fertility preservation.

Broad incumbents

• Eugin Group: International fertility services group and now the parent company of Instituto Bernabeu following the January 2026 acquisition; operates IVF clinics across Europe and provides the most direct strategic comparable given overlapping service lines and the second-largest-in-Spain positioning.

Regional players

• Virtus Health: Australia/UK-listed fertility services operator with global clinic footprint; useful international benchmark for a multi-clinic IVF platform with diagnostic and genetic capabilities, though it does not directly compete in the Iberian market.
• Boston IVF: Large US fertility clinic network; comparable as a multi-site fertility platform with advanced PGT/AI capabilities, but operates in North America rather than competing directly in Spain or Italy.
