The High Tech Campus based startup is developing a neonatal vital sign monitoring system called the Bambi Belt Solution. The new round of investments brings their total funding to date to 4.5 million euros. The company will use the investment to finalize product development, conduct clinical trials and bring the Bambi Belt Solution to the market.
“Fundraising can take up lots of time from a start-up company”,said Fabio Bambang Oetomo, CEO and founder of the company. “I am happy that we have successfully closed the financing round and can now focus again on our two priorities, product development, and business development.”
