Broncus Holding Corporation Closed Series D Financing

HONG KONG, Jan 28, 2021 - (ACN Newswire) - Broncus Holding Corporation ("Broncus"), a global leader in diagnostic and therapeutic technology for lung diseases, announced today the closing of a Series D round of funding led by FountainVest Partners. Other investors include Exome Asset Management, Summer Capital, and Valliance Capital.

Broncus is dedicated to the development of diagnostic and therapeutic technology for lung diseases with focus on the diagnosis of lung cancer and the treatment of emphysema. Owning more than 200 patents, Broncus has built a comprehensive and robust pipeline of patented technologies using a disciplined approach. The Bronchoscopic Trans-Parenchymal Nodule Access ("BTPNA") technology supporting the Archimedes System is able to access any part of the entire lung, reaching directly the lesions that are not connected to or adjacent to an airway. Leveraging its proprietary full-lung navigation technology, the company has developed an integrated interventional pulmonology platform encompassing navigation, diagnosis and treatment.

The funds raised in this round will be used for the commercialization and development of technology across lung cancer, emphysema and other important lung diseases. Efforts will include expanding commercial adoption and global clinical studies of the core products, and further development of next-generation radiofrequency technology to treat lung cancer with precision. Early investors in the company include Qiming Venture Capital, Lake Bleu Capital, DCP Capital, Ascendum Capital and Intuitive Surgical, an early pioneer and global technology leader in minimally invasive, robotic-assisted surgery.

Zhan Guowei, CEO of Broncus, said, "Our breakthrough navigation technology is enabling us to accelerate the development and commercialization of precise interventional technologies for diagnosis and treatment in order to improve options for patients with lung diseases and the physicians that care for them."

Leveraging FountainVest's resource within the healthcare sector, we look forward to partnering with Broncus to explore further growth opportunities both domestically and globally."
