This funding will allow Actuated Medical to execute on commercialization milestones generated through discussions with Strategic Partners with interest in Actuated Medical technologies. The financing goal is to commercialize two FDA cleared medical devices and, in parallel, grow their clinical neural device portfolio.
Neural implants have the potential to treat neural diseases like Parkinson's and Epilepsy by using small electrical fields to mitigate the disruptive signals causing symptoms. Actuated Medical's neural device team is working to solve two major challenges with neural implants – how to insert them precisely and gently to target, and how to keep the body from walling them off with scar tissue. The goal is to revolutionize the approach to neural device design, placement, and treatment approaches.
"We are excited to partner with Keiretsu Forum-MST, whose expertise and network will be invaluable as we move forward," said Maureen L. Mulvihill, CEO of Actuated Medical. "This investment tranche marks a pivotal moment in our journey, allowing us to bring our innovative solutions to market more quickly and effectively."
Keiretsu Forum-MST is recognized for its commitment to supporting innovative companies through strategic investments and resources.
