Novaremed Secures Additional Financing and Strengthens Leadership
Novaremed AG (Novaremed), a clinical-stage Swiss biopharmaceutical company, today announced that it has secured CHF2.6 million in additional financing from its existing shareholders and several new private investors. This brings the total financing raised by the company, since its inception, to CHF21 million. In addition, the company announced that Subhasis Roy, Novaremed’s COO since April 2018, will be stepping up and fulfilling the role of Interim CEO.

"This additional financing underscores the commitment of our shareholders and private investors, as well as their faith in Novaremed’s potential," said Harry Welten, Chairman of the Board of Novaremed. "Novaremed is well-positioned with a seasoned leadership team, led by Subhasis, to drive Novaremed’s clinical development and operations forward."
