Nico.lab, established in 2015, is planning to raise funds before their IPO in February 2019. The funds they plan on raising will help accelerate the strategy to bring their technology, StrokeViewer, to the market in Australia and Europe. Their technology aims to reduce the treatment time for stroke patients. It will also fund the development of the AI algorithm required for effective stroke detection over the next 12 months. The IPO Funds in February 2019 will focus on the technology rollout in the United States.
Nico.lab’s technology enables the fast and accurate image analysis to allow for quick decisions to be made by Doctors. It will reduce treatment time from hours to minutes. The technology has all four biomarkers required for accurate stroke detection. Within 3 minutes the StrokeViewer informs doctors with a biomarker report and image they can view on any device. Every hour that doctors can treat a stroke victim, the number of patients who recover without significant complications increase by 15%.
The CE certified technology uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve performance continually. Nico.lab has had 15 hospitals in the Netherlands sign up to use the technology. Peak Asset Management, an advisory firm, is planning to raise $2.3m, with the shares priced at 15¢, for Nico.lab before the IPO next year.
