Lanzadera Increases its Commitment to the Health Sector and Incorporates Nine Companies

Lanzadera raises its bet on the health sector. The accelerator promoted by the president of Mercadona, Juan Roig, has selected Healz, Ibions, Loop Diagnostics, Maternify, Neil, Onalabs, Sanidae, Startquake, and Ysium as companies to support in its latest call, which was announced this Monday and reported by ABC. Lanzadera has selected 120 new teams this time. The companies are innovating in areas such as health, food, education, mobility, and circular economy.

Healz solves problems of nutrition, performance, sleep, stress, and fatigue through accurate and personalized measurements. Loop Diagnostics has developed a new sepsis diagnostic test that is three times more effective and ten times faster than other tools available on the market. Loop Diagnostics has opened a €1 million round aimed at funding the market launch of its biomarker.

Maternify is a network of home-based, online maternity professionals that allows you to receive medical care in less than two hours. Neil, on the other hand, helps through artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to have a more accurate diagnosis of musculoskeletal pathologies and faster rehabilitation.

Another company that has made itself known is Onalabs. The company develops products capable of reading, interpreting, and translating skin into valuable health information. Last April, the company closed its first round of funding raising €1.2 million. The round was conducted through the crowdfunding platform Capital Cell. Onalabs will allocate the resources to continue the technological development and certification of its medical devices. These meters are focused on monitoring chronic patients, athletes and people with type I and II diabetes.

Lanzadera also promotes food, education, mobility, and circular economy projects

Sanidae, a platform for home health services that connects health professionals and patients, has also been added to the health list. Startquake, meanwhile, combines AI, massive proteomics, and biometric markers that allow health monitoring in a simple way, at home, and through an app.

Ysium Medical designs and develops innovative medical devices that, in collaboration with healthcare companies and established sales channels, reach the market. These nine companies join the last ones selected in May: FisioReact, Dynamics VR, and Farma Leaders.

Since its founding in 2013 to date, Lanzadera has boosted more than a thousand companies and provided more than €21 million in loans. Currently, more than 300 companies are receiving support from Lanzadera at its facilities in the Marina de Valencia.

The selected companies can receive grants starting from one thousand euros to the financing of €500,000, depending on the needs of each one. Lanzadera has assigned 120 companies to one of the four phases that make up the program, depending on their degree of maturity.

The four stages are: the “Scale Up” phase, for mature start-ups with a proven and profitable model; the “Growth” phase, for companies with potential but seeking faster growth; the “Tractio” phase, focused on start-ups in the early stages; and the “Start” phase, for entrepreneurs who are still shaping their project.
