Our client is a rapidly growing tissue regeneration company based in Waltham, Massachusetts. They develop and manufacture products that improve the body’s ability to regenerate healthy cartilage, improve joint function and prevent degenerative disease. Recently, they closed a $9M round of equity financing. The financing will be used to further the development and clinical trials of its neocartilage implant and auto-regenerative cartilage matrix.
