Omixon Celebrates a Successful EFI 2015

EFI 2015, Success for All
We had a tremendous experience last week in the amazingly picturesque city of Geneva Switzerland – the backdrop for EFI 2015, facilitated by Prof. Jean-Marie Tiercy and Dr. Jean Villard and their team of professional event managers.

Omixon’s booth was buzzing continuously with technical repartee and multiple software demos, and many participants were very interested in our NGS genotyping solutions for HLA. To further demonstrate Holotype HLA’s performance, Omixon held a series of three 1-hour workshops on Sunday April 26, for several HLA field experts to practice using our HLA Twin software hand-on in a class-room-environment, pampered by our support colleagues, Efi Melista (Field Application Scientist) and Agnes Pasztor (Customer Support Manager).

The activity in our booth and workshops was complemented by the Omixon Symposium on Monday April 27, attended by over 100 professionals from the HLA community. Introductory presentations from Marcello Scala (Sales Manager, EMEA & Asia) and Tim Hague (CEO) were followed by personal reports from some of our evaluators, presented by guest speakers Lydie Brunet (Geneva University Hospital), Mette Christiansen (Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark) and Amalia Dinou (Biomedical Foundation of Academy of Athens, Greece) – thank you again to our special guests for talking at our event!

The fun did not stop there – Omixon continued to entertain attendees with a number of side-shows, such as our wine-tasting event (“Cheers”), scientific posters sessions (3 posters), and a comic-posters lucky draw (winners to be announced soon).

Thank you again to the EFI 2015 organisers, we certainly look forward to seeing you in Kos, Greece for 2016.
