Sofinnova launches new fund
Sofinnova Partners SAS has created a new fund to build and support companies developing medical technologies with plans to launch six to eight new companies over the next five years. This is being enabled by an over-subscribed €82 million financing round announced on 28 September. While the target technologies haven’t been identified, the broad approach is to create companies from the ground up. Explaining this strategy, Antoine Papiernik, managing partner, said the investment group builds and supports “every company from day one.” These assets are then scaled up.
