LSP leads $28m round for Lumeon
Healthcare-focused VC Life Sciences Partners (LSP) has led a $28m funding round for Lumeon, a UK developer of software for the management of care pathways.
New investor MTIP also took part in the round, alongside existing backers Gilde Healthcare, Amadeus Capital Partners and IPF Partners.
The company will invest in marketing activity and grow its US operations, including the expansion of its Boston-based team.
LSP drew capital from €280m vehicle LSP Health Economics Fund 2 to support the transaction.

The company rebranded as Lumeon in 2016; the following year, IPF injected €7m into the firm.
