MGI Tech Launches Customer Experience Center in São Paulo, Brazil
MGI Tech Co. Ltd. (MGI), a leading life science technology company, announced the opening of its Customer Experience Center (CEC) in São Paulo, Brazil. This new facility is dedicated to supporting the advancement of genomics research and applications in Latin America.
Enhancing Healthcare through Education and Experience
The MGI Brazil CEC aims to provide a platform for hospitals, universities, and clinical and research laboratories to gain valuable experience with MGI's innovative genetic sequencing technology. This technology has wide-ranging applications in precision medicine, oncology, agrigenomics, metagenomics, and more.
“The demand for next-generation sequencing is rapidly growing in Latin America,” says Carlos Carpio, Senior Commercial Director of MGI LATAM and General Manager of MGI Brazil. “Our CEC will empower hospitals, clinics, and labs to improve their capabilities with affordable solutions, faster processing speeds, and high-quality data.”
The center will contribute to scientific development by reducing sequencing costs, expanding clinical applications, and ultimately making precision diagnoses and treatments more accessible to the population.
MGI Brazil CEC: A Hub for Innovation
The MGI Brazil CEC serves as a regional hub, facilitating the expansion of MGI's operations across Latin America. MGI has been a committed partner in the region since 2019, collaborating with institutions like Fiocruz (Brazil), Biogenar (Argentina), Gencell (Colombia), Genos (Mexico), and TCL Group (Chile).
“MGI's technology is a crucial part of Brazil's largest genomic sequencing project,” says Dr. João Bosco de Oliveira Filho, the project coordinator. The launch of the CEC is vital for researchers and diagnostic labs to stay updated and access local support.”
