Herzliya, Israel-based Rainbow Medical, an R&D and operational investment company specializing in seeding and incubating medical device startups and developing breakthrough medical technologies, has raised $25 million from investors in China and opened a China office to promote strategic collaborations.
“We opened the office in Shanghai to capitalize on China’s fast-growing market for our products and to foster collaborations with Chinese medical device companies,” said Efi Cohen-Arazi, co-founder and CEO of Rainbow Medical. “These investments by leading Chinese industrial and financial entities are an expression of the high esteem with which they view our technologies and the products we are developing. There is a strong demand in the fast-growing Chinese healthcare industry for Rainbow Medical’s breakthrough technologies.”
Participants in the current round of fundraising include China’s largest private insurance holding company Ping An, investment and financial management company YongJin, the Chinese telecommunications giant ZTE Corporation, and Chinese venture capital funds.
Rainbow Medical will invest these funds in seeding new startup companies based on intellectual properties owned by Rainbow Medical as well as to provide additional funding for Rainbow Medical’s existing portfolio companies.
