San Diego, CA, July 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mindera Health Inc. announces the closing of a $14M convertible note financing, led by Mountain Group Partners and other existing investors in anticipation of a Series B financing in 2025. Proceeds will support the continued commercialization of Mindera’s lead product, Mind.Px™.
“This capital raise will fuel the organization’s continued commercial growth.
