Goorden detailed how the 'Innovate, Lead, Scale' strategy has driven growth, with three core pillars: new contract wins, contract extensions, and expansion into new verticals such as blood-based biomarkers.\n\nDiscussing full-year trading, Goorden noted a boost in new contracts, particularly within neurology and Alzheimer’s disease, aligning with IXICO’s strategic goals. He emphasised that “we start to now also see that, especially for Alzheimer's disease in revenue.”\n\nContract extensions also played a significant role, including one in a major Alzheimer’s program. Additionally, IXICO’s movement into validating diagnostic blood tests was underlined by a new deal in this space, further building on earlier work with companies like Fujirebio.\n\nGoorden addressed the effective use of capital raised in the prior year, confirming investments in innovation, personnel, and US operational scale-up were all “on track” and have now moved into the execution phase. \n\nLooking ahead to 2026, the company aims to maintain its trajectory and highlight innovations more publicly, potentially exploring new partnerships.\n\nFor more interviews and updates, visit Proactive’s YouTube channel.
