“This financing milestone is one of many achieved by Rhaeos this year. The elegant design of their sensor and approach to commercialization led by a team of experts in their respective fields are among the reasons why we invested in Rhaeos. The FlowSenseâ„¢ platform has the potential to disrupt the wearable medical device space and we are glad to be a part of Rhaeos’ journey,” said Kulika Weizman, Principal at Creative Ventures.
