## About TIMEUP

TIMEUP is a health tech company based in Coimbra, Portugal, founded in 2023 by researchers from the University of Coimbra.

The company focuses on developing diagnostic medical devices aimed at the early detection and monitoring of urinary pathogens, particularly for catheterized patients. Its mission is to help prevent urinary tract infections and reduce the use of unnecessary antibiotics through continuous monitoring. The core product, TimeUp, is a catheter-integrated diagnostic device that attaches between a urinary catheter and the collection bag. It continuously monitors urine for uropathogens like E. coli and provides alerts before symptoms of infection arise. The device is designed to be sampling-free and decision-free, delivering results within approximately 24 hours at a lower cost. TIMEUP targets healthcare professionals involved in infection prevention and catheter care, as well as urinary catheter manufacturers for potential licensing and technology transfer agreements.
