Cambridge, MA:<\/strong> Legacy, Inc., a Swiss-based company offering distinctive fertility-based services to forward-looking men primed to invest in their futures, was recently profiled by The Independent<\/em>\u2019s IndyVenture business section as \u201cthe Swiss private bank for sperm<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n

\n

Khaled Kteily, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Legacy, and a graduate of Harvard University\u2019s Public Policy program, was quoted by the newspaper as saying, \u201cFor a lot of the world, Switzerland has an association with quality. Think of Swiss banks, Swiss watches and even chocolate. We have a strong emphasis on quality, privacy and security.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

Kteily added that, unlike some mass-market genetic testing companies, Legacy will never sell customer information. Each client is assigned a unique ID, \u201cjust like a Swiss private bank\u201d, to make the whole process as anonymous as possible.<\/p>\n

\n

The article also quoted Allen Pacey, professor of Andrology at the University of Sheffield and a member of Legacy\u2019s advisory board, as acknowledging that while men are concerned about external effects on fertility, such as exposure to chemicals and pesticides, they are increasingly preoccupied with a more pressing issue.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cMore cases of male infertility are being seen because men and their partners are waiting until they are older before trying for a family,\u201d said Pacey, adding that an increased awareness of male fertility issues has given rise to a vibrant market for solution-based startups such as Legacy.<\/p>\n

\n

Legacy was also praised by The Independent<\/em> as having successfully distinguished its services from competitors, including a fellow male fertility startup, by winning the Startup Battlefield competition at the TechCrunch Disrupt Berlin 2018, besting 12 other companies to claim the $50,000 first prize.<\/p>\n

\n

The win favorably positions the company to impact a market that, according to analysts noted by The Independent<\/em>, could reach $4.7 billion by 2025.<\/p>\n
