ProciseDx Inc., a San Diego, CA-based Rapid Diagnostic Tests (TDRs) company, raised $10.5m in Series A funding.
The round, which included $8.5m of equity and $2m of debt, was led by Biosynex, S.A., a French diagnostics company, which will now own 37% and will join the board. Nestlé Health Science, which previously owned 100% of ProciseDx, remains an active supporter and significant minority shareholder.
The company intends to use the funds for the ongoing development and commercialization of its point-of-care (POC) diagnostic platform.
