RDJ advised Galway-based medtech company Bluedrop Medical on its
€10.5 million funding round led by Atlantic Bridge and
Elkstone, with the European Innovation Council Fund, Furthr VC,
Western Development Commission, Ascentifi and HBAN's MedTech
and Irrus Investments syndicates also backing the company.
Founded by Chris Murphy and Simon Kiersey in 2015, Bluedrop
Medical aims to reduce the rate of preventable amputations for
people afflicted with diabetes. The company has developed an
internet of things-enabled device, similar to a bathroom scale, to
help those at risk of developing diabetic foot ulcers to easily
check their feet at home.
The funding round will be used to complete clinical trials and
start commercialisation. The company will also create 25 jobs this
year as a result of the funding, more than doubling its current
staff of 17, and increase its production capacity.
