Kayentis, a global provider of electronic Clinical Outcome Assessment (eCOA) solutions for patient and data collection in clinical trials, announced today the completion of a 3.6 M€ growth financing round.

The round was led by Innovation Capital whose SISA fund ­‐ dedicated to private equity investments in innovative digital health companies in Europe - contributed the bulk of the financing. The historical investors, Extens, Lénapart and KCE, reinvested alongside Innovation Capital.

The funds raised will enable Kayentis to further accelerate its growth internationally through increased investments in Sales, Marketing and R&D, and position the company as a leading global provider of eCOA solutions.

"This round of financing validates our development model and our significant growth prospects. It also provides Kayentis with the means to continue improving our technological platform and value-­added services to better serve our clients worldwide. I am particularly pleased to welcome Innovation Capital as a new investor or and business partner to accompany us in this new and exciting growth phase for Kayentis.
