“The Nalu Team is committed to addressing the unmet needs of patients suffering from chronic intractable neuropathic pain. We believe that our highly capable technology and uniquely small implant will elevate the standard of care in peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) while being disruptive to the established spinal cord stimulation (SCS) market,” said Tom West, President and CEO of Nalu. “We are proud that our efforts serve the greater well-being of patients who suffer from chronic pain, and we are grateful for B Capital’s support in fulfilling and accelerating our mission.”

“The unique, clinically proven Nalu Neurostimulation System has the potential to address the unmet needs of millions who suffer from chronic neuropathic pain,” said Dr. Robert Mittendorff, Head of Healthcare and General Partner at B Capital. “We look forward to partnering with Nalu’s talented management team and strong syndicate of investors at a time of high revenue growth and potential for the company.”

The proceeds from this financing will be used to accelerate commercial growth, expand clinical and health-economic evidence, continue product development, and scale operations. Nalu will continue to invest in building clinical data that provide physicians with clear evidence of its benefits while also serving as the basis for expanded access and payor coverage.
