Seventure et al. sell Endocontrol to trade

Clement Vidal, Endocontrol's CEO and co-founder, will remain the CEO of the business.

CM-CIC Capital Innovation and Sudinnova invested €1.05m in Endocontrol's series-A round in 2007. Seventure Partners then led a €3m series-B round for the company alongside Vizille and Sudinnova three years later.

Most recently, Seventure, CM-CIC and French consulting and engineering company Viveris Management injected €4m into Endocontrol in a series-C in 2013. The round was earmarked for research and development activities, for new equipment, and to fund international expansion, with a focus on Asia and the Middle East.
