EyeTechCare has raised US$9 million
EyeTechCare has raised US$9 million, with funds provided by Lyon-based insurance company SHAM, a first time investor, and Crédit Agricole Private Equity (CAPE), one of EyeTechCare’s existing shareholders.
Founded in 2008 and based in Rillieux-la-Pape, near Lyon, France, EyeTechCare provides innovative medical non-invasive devices to permanently cure glaucoma, the first cause of blindness in developed countries.
The funds raised in this second financing will be used to complete the first clinical trial on humans, as well as establish the manufacturing facilities and the sales and marketing force required for this first product. The market launch is scheduled for early 2011.
Oaklins’ team in France reviewed the strategy with the board and organized a fundraising with specialized venture funds.
