Jan 2022Series EHorizons Ventures (lead); Caesarea Medical Electronics; Touchwood Capital; Poalim Equity; La Maison Partners; Social Capital; Clal Insurance; Western Technology Investment; Union Tech Ventures; Phoenix Financial; Shavit Capital$93MMeMed, an Israeli healthtech company founded in 2009 by Eran Eden and Kfir Oved, develops host response technologies to diagnose diseases by analyzing the immune system's signals, distinguishing between bacterial and viral infections. Its key product, MeMed BV test, received US FDA clearance shortly before the funding announcement to aid in point-of-need diagnosis via the MeMed Key platform. The company also worked on tests for predicting COVID-19 deterioration risk and has partnerships including with the US Department of Defense and EU Commission. On January 10, 2022, MeMed raised $93 million in a private financing round (described variably as Series C or Series E across sources), led by Horizons Ventures, with participation from Shavit Capital, Social Capital, La Maison Partners, Touchwood Capital, Caesarea Medical Electronics (or Holdings), Clal Insurance, Phoenix Insurance (or Financial), Poalim Equity, and Western Technology Investment, among others. This brought total funding to over $200 million across multiple rounds since 2013. Funds were allocated to scale manufacturing, accelerate US-focused commercialization, expand sales teams (including over 20 in Boston), and grow the host immune response product portfolio. Headquartered in Haifa with about 100 employees across Israel, Europe, and the US, MeMed positions itself as a leader in reducing antibiotic overuse and improving infection triage amid antimicrobial resistance and COVID-19 challenges. Investors highlighted its potential to transform diagnostics. Management remains Israel-based with no plans for a US CEO.
Sep 2018Series CCaesarea Medical Electronics; Foxconn; Li Ka-shing; Ping An Global Voyager; Social Capital; Horizons Ventures; Clal Insurance; OurCrowd; Western Technology Investment; Phoenix Financial$70MMeMed is an Israeli medical diagnostics company based in Haifa that develops host immune response technologies to decode the body's immune response to infection. The company's primary product, MeMed BV, is a blood test that distinguishes between bacterial and viral infections by measuring immune system biomarkers and using machine learning algorithms to recognize patterns linked to different types of infection. The test was CE-marked in Europe and has demonstrated accuracy across patients with respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, and fever of unknown origin. In September 2018, MeMed completed a $70 million Series C funding round led by Ping An Global Voyager Fund, with participation from Foxconn, Caesarea Medical Holdings, Clal Insurance, Phoenix Insurance, OurCrowd, Social Capital, Western Technology Investment, Horizons Ventures, and others. This brought the company's total equity raised to $100 million, plus over $25 million in grants from governmental entities including the European Commission and U.S. Department of Defense. The proceeds were allocated toward manufacturing scale-up, completing development of the MeMed Key point-of-care platform that can run the test in minutes, expanding the product pipeline with machine learning-based tests for other clinical applications, and expanding market adoption in clinical settings. The company aimed to position the Key platform to bring central laboratory precision to point-of-care diagnostics, enabling measurement of multiple protein signatures and biomarkers that previously required centralized lab infrastructure.
