Diagnostics co GI View raises $10m
GI View Ltd., a start-up specializing in early diagnosis of cancer in the large intestine, has raised $10 million in its third financing round. The round was led by Israel Healthcare Ventures Ltd., with participation from Delta Ventures and previous private investors. The company, founded in 2003, has developed a disposable, miniaturized, self-propelled, self-navigating endoscope for early diagnosis of precancerous tumors. The latest financing round was held after receiving offers from three leading US venture capital funds to invest $30 million, but the board rejected the offers due to the condition of taking the company out of Israel. The current investors decided to invest at a significantly higher company value than the previous round. GI View has made good progress and exceeded targets, justifying the high valuation.
