Catenae Innovation PLC (AIM: CTEA), the AIM quoted provider of digital media and technology, announces that it has signed an agreement with Newcastle Premier Health Limited (“NPH”), an occupational health and wellness business based in the North East of England.
Under the terms of the agreement, NPH will provide its knowhow to the Cov-ID project, a GDPR compliant identity documentation exchange system to record an individual’s Covid-19 test status through a mobile app that is intended to be marketed to businesses and organisations.
As previously announced, the Cov-ID project is a joint initiative by a consortium of companies led by the Z/Yen Group.
NPH has agreed to pilot the Cov-ID app which is expected to commence on 29 May 2020.
Guy Meyer, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Catenae, commented: “We are delighted that occupational health and wellness business, Newcastle Premier Health, will pilot the Company’s Cov-ID mobile app technology on a selection of its employees in its efforts to return to work safely. Upon publication of a proof of concept, which is expected to take place within the next few weeks, the app will be available to be rolled out to benefit businesses and organisations as current restrictions begin to ease. We look forward to updating the market in due course.”
Mark Philpott, Managing Director of NPH, said: “As a responsible and ethical occupational health provider, we understand the importance of enabling our clients and other local businesses to return to work safely and at an appropriate time in line with the best scientific and government advice available. We are looking forward to combining our clinical and occupational health expertise within the Cov-ID project, with the expertise of the other consortium members.“
