Innovation Manager Helped Ankerias Secure Pre-Seed Investment

Ankerias is a Finnish health technology company developing an AI-powered platform for diagnosing neuropathic pain and optimising pain therapies. It helps healthcare providers identify the right patients and improve treatment outcomes with integrated clinical data and physiology-based modelling of pain.

Innovation Manager supported Ankerias in successfully filling up their pre-seed round, securing private investment from early-stage investment funds and business angels across Europe.

The newly raised capital will help Ankerias to launch hospital pilots, commercialise its non-MDR software modules, advance its AI platform, and accelerate growth across the $80B pain treatment market.

What stood out with Innovation Manager was not just access to investors, but the quality of preparation and feedback. Their support helped us sharpen our story and ultimately secure the right partners for our pre-seed round.
