BtoV, Wellington and Seroba co-lead $48m series-C for Quanta
BtoV, Wellington Partners and Seroba Life Sciences have co-led a $48m series-C funding round with a Swiss family office for dialysis systems developer Quanta Dialysis Technologies.
This is the company's first closing for the series-C. "Quanta are talking to a blend of existing and new investors ahead of the full close of the round and commitments have already been made," said a spokesperson for the company.
The fresh capital will be used to fund the UK commercial launch of the company's lead product and a 510(k) submission to the FDA later this year. The company has not yet generated revenues.

In 2009, BtoV, Wellington Partners, Seroba and NBGI Ventures invested in a $14.3m series-A for the company.
Air Liquide, a gas and chemicals service, led a £27m series-B. Also participating were existing investors BtoV, Wellington, Seroba and NBGI, and new investors the Kuwait Life Sciences Company and CITA Investissement.
The company received a £1.9m grant from the National Institute for Health Research in 2015.
In 2018, MedTech Innovation Partners invested an undisclosed amount in Quanta.
