Spectrumedics Medical
Spectrumedics Medical is a Singapore-based medical device company building active, minimally-invasive cardiovascular interventional systems. Its flagship product, the Sonico-CX intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) system, uses acoustic pressure waves to break up calcified coronary lesions so cardiologists can restore blood flow and place stents. In January 2026 the company earned an EU CE mark, joining Johnson & Johnson MedTech's Shockwave and Elixir Medical as one of the few companies with EU-approved coronary IVL systems. Backed by a Series A round led by Legend Capital, Spectrumedics operates from the JTC MedTech Hub and is commercializing across Asia Pacific and Latin America while expanding into Europe and the Middle East.
Axon Therapies, Inc.
Axon Therapies is a clinical-stage medical device company developing SAVM (Splanchnic Ablation for Volume Management), a minimally invasive, implant-free catheter procedure that ablates the greater splanchnic nerve to calm an overactive sympathetic nervous system and rebalance blood volume in patients with heart failure - particularly heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Incubated by the medtech studio Coridea and backed by leading healthcare investors, the company is advancing its Satera Ablation System through randomized, sham-controlled feasibility trials.
Revamp Medical
Revamp Medical is an Israeli medical device company building the Doraya catheter, a temporary, adjustable flow-reducing catheter for patients hospitalized with acute heart failure. Deployed in the infrarenal inferior vena cava for up to 12 hours, Doraya is designed to relieve venous congestion and improve response to diuretic therapy in patients who respond poorly to standard drugs - addressing the local mechanism of diuretic resistance rather than relying on systemic drugs or dialysis. Founded in 2016 and based in Netanya, the company won FDA Breakthrough Device designation in 2020 and closed a KCK Medtech-led Series A in 2023 to fund U.S. clinical trials.
Aurie
Aurie is a Syracuse-based medical device company that built the first FDA-authorized reusable no-touch intermittent catheter system. Founded by industrial designer Souvik Paul after his sister-in-law's catheter-related infections, Aurie reuses a single catheter up to 100 times via a portable Personal Disinfector that cleans, disinfects, and lubricates the device in 36 minutes - cutting waste and recurring costs for people living with neurogenic bladder.
R. Scott Jones
R. Scott Jones is the Chairman and CEO of Intravascular Imaging Incorporated (i3), a Wilton, Connecticut medtech startup commercializing a 3-French NIRF-IVUS catheter that lets cardiologists see both the anatomy and the biology of a diseased coronary artery in a single pass. A medical device operator with more than 25 years in the field, he once ran GE Medical Systems' cardiovascular business across the Americas and Asia and has steered companies from two-person startups to organizations of 7,000 employees. At i3 he is the commercial engine behind a technology born in the labs of Massachusetts General Hospital and the Technical University of Munich.
Souvik Paul
Souvik Paul is the CEO and Founder of Aurie, a medtech company that built the first FDA De Novo-cleared reusable intermittent catheter system. A Harvard-educated designer and former J&J strategist, Paul was driven to start Aurie after witnessing a family member's struggle with catheter-associated infections following a spinal cord injury. His Oakland-based startup has raised $14.24M and is pioneering a no-touch, automatically disinfecting catheter system designed to transform care for the 600,000 Americans who rely on intermittent catheters.
