Verinata raises $46.5 million in Series C financing

Wednesday, August 10, 2011 12:53 PM

Verinata Health, a privately-held company dedicated to maternal and fetal health, has raised approximately $46.5 million in the finalization of its Series C financing. The funding was led by existing investors Mohr Davidow Ventures, Sutter Hill Ventures, and Alloy Ventures. Verinata plans to use the proceeds to fund continued research and development and subsequent commercialization of its non-invasive prenatal diagnostic test.

"This substantial financing demonstrates our investors' confidence in Verinata's ability to meet or exceed corporate and product milestones as we proceed rapidly on the path to commercialization of our first diagnostic test," said Caren L. Mason, chief executive officer of Verinata Health. "We look forward to completing our validation study later this calendar year, as we prepare for a successful launch of our non-invasive prenatal diagnostic in the first quarter of 2012."
