Both Nordic and international investors were attracted by Sigrid’s natural, non-drug alternative SiPore® technology
STOCKHOLM, Oct. 31, 2023 — Sigrid Therapeutics successfully secured $4 million in an oversubscribed funding round. The investment, made by both existing and new investors, underlines the strong investor confidence in Sigrid’s innovative SiPore® technology.
The funds will be instrumental in accelerating the commercialisation of SiPore® across diverse markets, including medical devices, food supplements, veterinary, and oral health. SiPore21®, the company’s flagship product, is currently undergoing SHINE clinical trials as a natural, non-drug solution for prediabetes progression and weight control. Administered orally, SiPore21® utilises a carefully engineered, mesoporous silica mineral to prevent digestive enzymes from breaking down carbohydrates and fats, offering a promising alternative to pharmaceutical methods.
“This funding will propel our efforts in establishing key partnerships and driving SiPore® technology to market. We are thrilled to have the backing of our investors as we move closer to providing effective solutions for obesity and diabetes management,” says Sana Alajmovic, Sigrid’s Co-Founder and CEO.
“Sigrid’s continued success is evident from the launch of one of the world’s largest prediabetes trial, SHINE, to SiPore21®’s medical device classification and the commercial traction in our oral health vertical. These accomplishments show the company is well on track to deliver on its exciting potential,” adds Mattias Ankarberg, Sigrid’s Chairman.
“We’re pleased that Sigrid Therapeutics’ recent share offering was oversubscribed by an impressive 50%. In today’s challenging financial climate, this achievement underscores the company’s quality and potential. Amidst concerns about obesity and diabetes, the demand for effective, non-drug therapies is evident. This success mirrors investor confidence and Sigrid’s commitment to pioneering drug-free solutions,” adds Lars Molinder, financial adviser to Sigrid Therapeutics.
