Angel investors as well as an initial investment by SINEFIX implant current manufacturer Renolit also supported the funding.
Inovedis will use the capital from this round to commercially introduce the SINEFIX implant in the US.
This year, the company has received clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for this implant. It is not yet approved for sale outside the US.
The funding will also be used to support a clinical trial in Germany. This study is focused on generating the data required to apply for CE marking and sales expansion in the country.
