Marani Health, an AI-powered remote pregnancy care platform, announced their latest milestone last week (Feb 25) having raised $3.7M in an oversubscribed funding initiative. The move highlights the rapid advancement of MedTech and telehealth as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The platform founded by Mayo Clinic saw SWL Healthcare Ventures providing the largest investment, followed by new investor TFX Capital. As a result, more than $5.5 million in capital has been raised to-date.
