About us
Patient first: choose quality, safety and expertise
Gametia is a new brand, but we have been dedicated to biobanking for decades. Our aim is to become the first European Biobank thanks to the largest open and anonymous donor base, a wide phenotype variability, the highest quality standards and a reputation built over trust, transparency, safety and quality clinical results.
Our Core Values
Our leadership, expertise and knowledge developed during decades has enabled us to evolve into an international network that aims to become the leading, trustworthy biobank partner of IVF centres, guided by the following values:
Your activity and ours are intrinsically linked. We are part of your patients’ treatments and as such the safety of your patients and the reputation of your centre are our main concern. All our processes are carefully monitored to bring the best guarantees, from donor recruitment and screening to gamete extraction, storage and delivery.
Our gametes are thoroughly examined with an appropriate control and challenging KPIs to ensure the best results. Consistency in the biological samples is one of Gametia’s strengths, we are aware that practice and precision lead every laboratory to excellence, there are no shortcuts. All our biobank processes are certified according to ISO 9001:2015.
Our labs count with state of art technologies to ensure the best quality and security. Continuous improvement and scientific research are at the core of Gametia, we are committed to leveraging technology to enhance and improve our results and by extension your results.
Our team is at your service. You can count on professional customer attention, precise logistics, various training options, backup from biologists and exclusive clinical and genetical support.
We strive for your peace of mind and your patient’s safety automating and tracing all the biobank processes and storing biomaterial in case it is needed in the future. Although we connect a network of biobanks (EU authorised tissue establishments) that have standardised all the processes, you will always have clear, transparent and traceable information regarding the origins of the samples (within the SEC code) and the donor information that we can disclose.
Our legal department has deep knowledge and understanding of the different regulations within Europe and all our contracts and services are fully compliant with these regulations. We cut no corners and all our activity is transparent and compliant (SEC codes, anonymous and open donor consents, national registries, born babies…). Depending on your country we can even offer counselling on donation regulatory framework.
It is our goal to deliver consistent donor gametes to our partners so that they can deliver consistent treatment results to their patients. Thanks to our tested standards of quality developed by a common medical and scientific lead, and their thorough implementation in all of our Gametia centers we are able to offer very attractive guarantees on our services. In some countries, on top of our results guarantee we can even offer a success insurance program, please consult your local representative.
Medical and Scientific Advisory Board
As a science-based biobank it is essential for us to have a strong medical and scientific board. We have been able to assemble a medical and scientifical team of wide experience in human assisted reproduction who provides highly valued advice on latest scientific updates and emerging technologies. Their knowledge and inputs are key drivers for our continuous improvement philosophy and research projects. Our members are:
"Our MSAB cooperates frequently with public institutions and international research centers. A large number of publications are available in scientific journals and databases."
Gametia Centers
We operate 10 centers across 2 countries: Spain and Portugal. In terms of ensuring varied phenotypic diversity, we’re proud to offer an extensive
range of options. In fact, we can offer more than 6,720 phenotype combinations to match the needs of our customers. This diversity is essential for
us, as we understand the importance of finding a donor that meets a patient’s
specific requirements.
