The new financing will help roll out Levita’s magnetic-assisted robotic surgery platform. More than 30 surgeries have been performed with the platform in Chile, according to the Aug. 11 Levita press release.
A health technology group led by investor Evan Norton led the financing round.
“We are thrilled to have the support of this premier group of forward-thinking investors as we take the company to the next level with our unique approach to surgical robotics,” founder and CEO of Levita Magnetics Alberto Rodriguez-Navarro, MD, said. “At Levita, we believe that everyone deserves the benefits of MARS, offering the potential for less pain, faster recovery and less scarring. Our platform is poised to address the worldwide problem of limited access to better robotic surgery.”
