The US market is one of the world's three largest markets for IVF. In the United States, over 413,776 cycles in assisted reproductive technology (ART) were conducted at 453 reporting clinics in 2021, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC[1]), in 2021. The in vitro fertilization (IVF) market size in the United States was valued at $4.9 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach $5.6 billion by 2027[2].

Spermosens has received patent protection for its medical device including the biosensor, and its use for the selection of sperm suitable for In Vitro Fertilization (IVF treatment). The US 11,782,052 patent provides the opportunity for exclusivity in the US market until August 23, 2039.
