Congratulations to UCLTF portfolio company Echopoint Medical Ltd on it's £4.2 million Series A funding. 

The investment will support the company’s flagship iKOr system through the FDA approval process, setting the stage for its market debut in the United States.

We're delighted to continue our support for the UCL spinout, which is a leader in the development of advanced diagnostic solutions for cardiovascular care.

Dave Grimm, Partner UCL Technology Fund said: “It’s been great to partner with Echopoint right from their beginnings in the lab at UCL through to leading their Seed round and now supporting their Series A. We’ve been hugely impressed with the team’s ability to rapidly commercialise world leading university research and bring new fibre optic technology to deliver positive outcomes for end patients in the UK. We continue to support the company as they look to enter and scale across the US to help thousands suffering from microvascular disease.”
