Portfolio News

March 31, 2022Adam Boehler, former director of the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation (CMMI), in partnership with venture capitalist firm, Martin Ventures, today announce their investment in StationMD, a healthcare company that uses telemedicine to deliver medical care to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). That includes individuals with autism spectrum disorder, Down syndrome, and cerebral palsy. Read on original publication The investment is part of a trend to back innovative home- and community-based care models that keep high-risk/high-cost populations out of the emergency room and hospitals, while cutting costs and improving health outcomes. “I’ve watched StationMD expand from serving 1,300 individuals in three states to 32,000 in 12 states and counting in just two years,” said Boehler. “Payers, patient advocates, and policymakers have been seeking solutions to close the health equity gap for vulnerable populations. I’m passionate about supporting companies like StationMD that leverage their expertise, specialization, and telehealth tools to improve the patient experience while improving the quality of care and reducing healthcare costs.” “We are making meaningful investments to expand healthcare to a population that has always been underserved. StationMD offers an unrivaled capability to tailor medical care to people with I/DD, and we are excited that our investment will help expand the service. It’s an important step to improving care for millions of people.” said Devin Carty, CEO of Martin Ventures. The pandemic has been a catalyst for increased telemedicine use and is deemed widely effective. For people with I/DD, the value of telemedicine is more pronounced as they struggle with chaotic emergency rooms, transportation, and finding specially trained doctors. They are often high ER utilizers, incurring significant health care costs as a result. StationMD provides alternative access to medical care for this population. StationMD clients have reported data that shows the service translates to better health outcomes and cost-savings into the millions. “Last year, StationMD doctors performed nearly 25,000 virtual consultations and resolved patients’ medical concerns 93 percent of the time, averting the need to travel to the ER or urgent care,” said Dr. Maulik Trivedi, cofounding doctor at StationMD. “We have consistently found that our specialized telemedicine service provides people with I/DD better care at a fraction of the cost of going to the ER.” The investment from Boehler and Martin Ventures is a strong signal to insurers to offer in-home care to members and encourage its use going forward to reduce costs.

May 18, 2021Piano, a global analytics, personalization and subscription platform, today announced it has raised $88 million in funding. The round was led by existing investors Updata Partners and with supporting investments from Rittenhouse Ventures and LinkedIn. The company’s previous funding round, which preceded its acquisition of Norway-based data management platform Cxense, was a $22 million Series B in January 2019 also led by Updata Partners. Since this previous investment round, Piano has grown their revenue by nearly 400%, further expanded into the Asia-Pacific region, integrated its customer journey and data management capabilities and also acquired France-based analytics platform AT Internet. Read on original publication “The past two years have been an extraordinary period of growth for Piano as we’ve added new capabilities to our platform and grown into new markets,” said Trevor Kaufman, CEO of Piano. “This funding, and the addition of LinkedIn as a strategic investor, will help us continue investing in the best technology and world-class talent, enabling our clients to create compelling, data-driven customer experiences.” LinkedIn’s involvement closely follows the Microsoft-owned social networking platform’s own impressive growth and its increased investment in its consumer-focused business via content creation and sharing. LinkedIn’s total revenue grew by 25% year-over-year, fueled by conversations on the platform increasing by 43% and sessions growing 29% with record engagement. “As we work to surface high-quality content and conversations as a strategy to increase user growth and engagement, Piano’s leadership in the content commerce space makes them a natural, strategic investment opportunity,” said Scott Roberts, VP and Head of Business Development at LinkedIn. “We know publishers are increasingly seeing referral traffic from LinkedIn fuel subscription sign-ups, and we only see this growing as we partner more closely with Piano.” The new funds will be used for Piano’s rapid growth across functions, and particularly its data and analytics offerings bolstered by the company’s recent integration of its data management capabilities with its flagship customer journey orchestration product Composer and acquisition of France-based AT Internet. “Piano’s recent growth has been outstanding, and we continue to be impressed by the expanding set of capabilities they bring to both media companies and brands looking to drive more revenue from their audiences,” said Jon Seeber, General Partner of Updata Partners and a member of Piano’s Board of Directors. “They now have a true end-to-end platform that can power all aspects of the customer journey, allowing their clients to incorporate only the highest-quality data from across touchpoints to create the best experiences for users.” Piano’s end-to-end platform leverages data, artificial intelligence and commerce features to help global, national and local brands and publishers achieve revenue growth while also empowering teams to launch relevant audience experiences.

March 12, 2020Vida Diagnostics, a provider of AI-powered lung imaging analysis tools, today announced that it has raised $11 million in a series C round. CEO Susan A. Woods said the funds will be used to accelerate the commercialization and expansion of the company’s product portfolio, which she says could address market deficits in the early assessment, monitoring, and treatment of lung disease. Read on original publication “We are driven to continuously raise the standard of care for patients with or at risk of lung disease. By equipping care teams with LungPrint, patient care and quality of life can be positively affected,” said Wood, who noted that lung disease impacts over 500 million people globally. “Vida is endlessly thankful for the extensive support of the people, resources, and programs from the State of Iowa leading to this expansive funding. Vida can now accelerate LungPrint’s market access, further connecting its benefits to the many millions of patients with lung disease.” Vida’s LungPrint uses medical data, including chest CT scans, to provide a set of insights that could help inform treatment options. It integrates with radiology workflows, automatically evaluating lung density that may be indicative of emphysema and interstitial lung abnormalities, while providing planning and guidance for conditions like bronchoscopists, interventional pulmonologists, and thoracic surgeons. Using special topographic MPR techniques that sample and project non-overlapping airways onto a single image, Vida claims LungPrint is able to preserve CT scan resolution, as well as the context of surrounding tissue. Vida also says it is FDA-cleared, CE-marked, Health Canada-licensed and TGA-registered for clinical use in the U.S., European Economic Area, Canada, and Australia. Beyond LungPrint, the company supports clinical trials with a range of services. Among these are preclinical imaging consulting; imaging protocol and imaging charter development; site qualification and training; data collection, storage, and management; quantitative CT assessment of lung function; expert, blinded image review project management and quality assurance; and data analysis and interpretation. “Pulmonology and radiology are severely underserved areas of health care — the need is expanding and the number of clinicians is limited. Vida is in an optimal position to deliver innovation and increase access,” said First Analysis managing director and general partner Tracy Marshbanks in a statement. “This investment will enable Vida to meet the growing call for precise AI-driven lung analysis solutions that can help improve the quality of diagnosis and life for patients impacted by lung disease.” Vida is one of several startups applying AI to health care challenges. Paige recently raised $45 million to continue its work in cancer diagnosis with AI models trained using clinical imaging data, and Aidoc nabbed $27 million for AI-assisted head, chest, abdominal, and spinal exams. Healthy.io taps machine learning to conduct urinalysis. Sight Diagnostics — which has raked in over $27.8 million in funding — leverages a family of algorithms to perform point-of-care complete blood count (CBC) tests with no more than a pinprick of blood. And just last month, Qure.ai snagged $16 million for AI that spots abnormalities in chest and head scans. Coralville, Iowa-based Vida’s latest funding round was led by Analysis Corporation, with initial equity participation from Blue Heron Capital, UnityPoint Health Ventures, Next Level Ventures, Chartline Capital Partners, Rural Vitality Fund, Rittenhouse Ventures, Iowa First Capital Fund, and the Angels’ Forum. It brings the company’s total raised to date to over $20 million. [...]

The addition of SocialFlow onto Piano’s platform will allow social media teams to optimize engagement and attention across multiple accounts and gain a deeper level of insight into how content is driving revenue. SocialFlow’s tools help streamline execution to efficiently manage organic posting across platforms, manage paid social media campaigns, and collect data on user clicks. Read on original publication Organizations often face a fundamental challenge in determining which content will perform well on social media, when to publish it for maximum impact and then tracking results. These brands produce hundreds to thousands of articles and videos per month and have scores of social media accounts, with multiple team members managing those channels. Executing a social media strategy at scale requires tools built intentionally for the needs of publishers. “Our goal at Piano is to help organizations bring data together, make it available in real time and leverage it effectively to fuel both analysis and targeting,” said Trevor Kaufman, CEO, Piano. “Although social media has continued to grow as an integral part of digital strategy, the full scope of its impact has been a blind spot for most brands, limited by the confines of digital marketing attribution models. Adding SocialFlow to our offering will open a new realm of opportunities to create connectors between social media and the on-site user journey, and we’re excited to help our clients enrich their strategies with this new level of digital sophistication.” SocialFlow’s tools facilitate posts across more than 10,000 social media accounts with 2.7 billion collective followers. Its impressive client roster includes major media organizations such as The Associated Press, the BBC, CNN, Condé Nast, NBC, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post. “SocialFlow has spent the last decade helping publishers create value from their social content. Now with the combined power of SocialFlow and Piano, publishers will be able to unlock new insights across digital touchpoints,” said Jim Anderson, CEO, SocialFlow. “I’m excited to watch the Piano team take what we’ve built at SocialFlow and bring it to the next level as part of their full digital experience platform.” The transaction is a cash purchase, with funding provided by Updata Partners, Rittenhouse Ventures and Sixth Street Partners, and results in Piano acquiring 100% of the shares of SocialFlow. Houlihan Lokey served as the exclusive financial adviser to Piano on the transaction, while Macquarie served as exclusive financial adviser to SocialFlow.
