AlgoDx has announced that all existing investors have committed to a follow-up investment summing up to 13 MSEK (approximately 1.25 MEUR).

The round was led by Nascent Invest with participation from angel investors Tomas Mora-Morrison, co-founder of Cambio Healthcare Systems, and Fredrik Sjödin.

Accelerate projects

The company intends to use the funds to continue to expand operations and its development efforts.

“We are very proud that all of the investors from our seed round last year continue to back us,” says David Becedas, CEO. “With this follow-up investment we can accelerate the projects in our pipeline and bring clinically validated machine learning algorithms that can save lives and reduce costs to market.”

Predicts sepsis

AlgoDx’s most advanced project is an algorithm that accurately predicts sepsis in hospitalized patients using only routinely collected healthcare data. This product is currently being clinically validated at the Intensive Care Unit at Skåne University Hospital, Malmö, in the largest randomized clinical trial ever conducted with a sepsis prediction algorithm.

“We believe in digital transformation and in the implementation of artificial intelligence in healthcare, especially post COVID-19, and AlgoDx maintains a high level of innovation in this area.”

“We believe in digital transformation and in the implementation of artificial intelligence in healthcare, especially post COVID-19, and AlgoDx maintains a high level of innovation in this area. Proof of the clinical relevance of AlgoDx’s project is that it has been possible to conduct this large clinical trial under the current pandemic when we unfortunately have seen many other clinical projects put on hold,” says Erik Gozzi, CEO of Nascent Invest.
