Erfurt/Munich/Jena. Smart­Dye­Liv­ery GmbH has suc­cess­fully closed a financ­ing round with a busi­ness angel investor and cur­rent lead investor, bm|t. The young Biotech com­pany from Jena will fur­ther develop its inno­v­a­tive nan­otech­nol­ogy for life sci­ences appli­ca­tions. “With this cap­i­tal, we are well posi­tioned to take our unique nan­oth­er­apy through the next stage of devel­op­ment,” said a pleased Dr. Marc Lehmann, Man­ag­ing Direc­tor of Smart­Dye­Liv­ery GmbH.

Cur­rently the Smart­Dye­Liv­ery team is focus­ing on a ther­apy for sep­sis induced liver fail­ure with the goal of reduc­ing the mor­tal­ity rate of such cases by 90%.
