Jana Care has raised $6m in the Series B financing round, to complete the commercialisation of its self-administered blood tests for kidney and heart disease.
The financing round saw participation from both new and existing venture corporations, with IAG Capital Partners becoming the new lead investor that joined the investor syndicate and global strategic partners to support the development of Jana Care’s blood testing platform.
Jana Care intends to use the funds for further development of its quantitative blood testing platform.
The platform is intended to facilitate self-administered blood tests at home, enabling clinicians to remotely review the test results as required.
The platform’s features are designed to address the challenges of distance and socioeconomic barriers that hinder the timely detection and monitoring of chronic kidney and heart disease progression.
Jana Care CEO Anh Hoang-Lindsay said: “Building on the strength of our global strategic partnerships, we are proud to expand our investor base in our fight to bridge the access gap for many chronic disease patients, especially in these post-pandemic times.”
