DrugStop · Drug detection for personal protection

The Problem: Drug rape, and related crimes, performed after a victim has been intoxicated by a drug that has been added tothe victims drink, is a growing problem and threat to EU citizens. It is estimated that app. 103.000 incidents occur annually inEU. Also the number of cases is increasing every year as the use of “drink spiking” to facilitate crimes is increasing inpopularity.The Solution: D-management has developed a device, DrugStop, which is capable of detecting if drugs have been added toa drink. We have achieved this goal by combining advanced spectroscopic techniques with advanced data processing. Bycommercialization of this device we give people, and establishment owners, a reliable and efficient way they can defendthemselves against this increasing threat.The Market: Market surveys have indicated that both individuals and owners of establishments are interested in a device thatcan detect if drugs are present in drinks. It is estimated that the total cost, in EU alone is 2.83 bill. € annually. We haveidentified an urgent need for a device that can prevent these kinds of crimes. Our device is marketed towards two classes ofend-users, establishment (bars, pubs etc) owners and the individual user. For both markets there is currently no seriouscompetitors that can offer the same kind of reliable and fast detection system as is the case for our device.
