Yards advises Mutuelles Impact (managed by XAnge) and NewFund in the Diagnoly fundraising

Back

This fundraising was led by Mutuelles Impact, the impact fund managed by XAnge and initiated by Mutualité Française, as well as by NewFund through its vehicle specialized in health, NewFund HEKA. The BADGE network (Business Angels des Grandes Écoles), a long-standing investor, and a group of medical experts also participated in this operation.

This strategic operation will enable Diagnoly, a Lyon-based deeptech company offering an AI-based solution to aid in prenatal screening, to strengthen its technical teams, accelerate deployment in Europe and the United States, and expand the use cases of AI to other types of fetal pathologies.
