Diagnostics Development Hub (DxD Hub) is a national platform hosted by the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR). With a mission to revolutionize diagnostics and improve healthcare outcomes, DxD Hub drives the transformation of innovations into clinically validated diagnostic devices that are ready for market adoption, leveraging an internal end-to-end, ISO13485-compliant productization engine that it has built over the years. By adopting a holistic diagnostics product development approach to drive towards product-market fit, DxD Hub offers innovators and enterprises a suite of ready-to-serve, multi-disciplinary diagnostics productization capabilities in product design and development, regulatory strategies, manufacturing for In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs), Point-Of-Care Connected Devices, Digital Diagnostics and Digital Therapeutics.

DxD Hub drives the development of an effective diagnostic MedTech ecosystem in Singapore by delivering impactful products, empowering local enterprises, and anchoring global companies in the region.

DxD Hub projects in RIE2025 to focus thematically on:

• Precision Medicine
• Women’s Health
• Infectious Diseases

In Precision Medicine, we are broadening our strategy to utilise our strength as a regional leader in diagnostics. While cancer is still an area of active interest—as exemplified by our development projects for breast cancer—we are further expanding our reach, by engaging in projects around Asian phenotype. 

In Women's Health, we committed our resources to co-develop innovations centered on women's cancers, as well as pre-natal and early childhood development. Investment in this space is increasing exponentially, and national initiatives like GUSTO ensure that there will be a continued supply of crucial data and IP assets for collaboration. 

Finally, in Infectious Diseases (IDs), we will continue to build a portfolio of projects to contribute to pandemic readiness, as well as to combat other IDs relevant and prevalent in the Southeast Asian region.

Coming up with a medical device is more than just an idea. It's a passion for pushing the boundaries of human health. Together with leading MedTech professionals, inspiring national partners, and fellow collaborators in Singapore, DxD Hub strives to be the go-to end-to-end expert that takes your proprietary ideas and turns them into innovative medical devices that can address prevalent diseases in Asia.

Driving Patient and Economic Impact

With continued success across multiple collaborations, DxD Hub is the go-to partner for accelerated development of diagnostics solutions.
