NESS ZIONA, Israel, July 15,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- NanoPass
Technologies, a leading innovator in intradermal delivery
solutions, has secured a $4 million
investment from lead investor Awz Ventures as part of a
$6 million funding round.
This marks a significant milestone for NanoPass as it expands its
commercial reach and reinforces its status as a pioneer in
effective delivery solutions.
NanoPass has recently appointed Daniel Levitats as its new CEO to support
its growth efforts. With over 25 years of experience in high-tech
and medical device companies, Daniel's extensive background in
executive leadership roles, strategic global commercial execution,
and driving innovation - especially in the therapeutic and
aesthetic fields - will further propel NanoPass towards its
goal of redefining the standard of care in intradermal
delivery.
NanoPass has revolutionized intradermal delivery with its
groundbreaking MicronJet™ product platform. This next-generation
technology enables superior product delivery, offering precision,
consistency, and safety that surpasses any traditional injection
methods. The MicronJet™ solution platform leverages
(MEMS) Micro Electro Mechanical Systems technology, meticulously
designed to optimize product delivery performance, setting a new
standard in both challenging and commonly performed therapeutic and
aesthetic procedures. The key features of the MicronJet™ platform
include a proprietary pure silicon crystal-made hollow pyramid
structure. The hollow pyramids are the only FDA cleared intradermal
delivery system that is smaller than 1 mm in size, and have been
proven to provide high delivery consistency, low leakage rate, and
high success rate evaluated by bleb formation in over 70 clinical
studies and dozens of peer-reviewed publications. MicronJet™ has
become a preferred product delivery method worldwide due to it
being near painless , making it a top choice for both clinicians
and patients compared to traditional needles.
"We are thrilled to have Awz Ventures onboard as a strategic
investor and are excited to continue our journey of innovation and
growth in the intradermal delivery space," said NanoPass CEO
Daniel Levitats. "Our MicronJet™
platform represents the future of medical procedures, offering
precise, safe, and efficient delivery solutions that enhance
patient experience and outcomes."
Awz Ventures' investment in NanoPass Technologies is a testament
to the company's potential in various medical applications, from
vaccines and drug delivery to skin testing and aesthetics. This
investment, part of Awz's Active Capital strategy, provides
NanoPass with multi-stage investment, active, hands-on
comprehensive mentorship, unparalleled access to strategic
partnerships, and preparation for subsequent funding rounds and
M&A opportunities. It underscores NanoPass's profound impact in
the healthcare industry and sets the stage for further growth and
innovation, sparking excitement about the company's future
potential.
"NanoPass's unique deep tech technology has revolutionized
medical delivery, including vaccines, drug treatments, and
aesthetics. We foresee NanoPass technology disrupting the market
and becoming the primary method for administering vaccinations,
skin rejuvenation treatments, and other drugs requiring precise
skin delivery," said Awz Founder and Managing Partner Yaron
Ashkenazi. "Awz envisions NanoPass' technology as a critical
component in enhancing public health and resilience, and an
essential solution for pandemics."
