SmartCella operates through three primary divisions, including Smartwise, SmartCella Solutions, and ProCella.

Smartwise is at the forefront of developing and manufacturing the Extroducer, which is designed to allow direct tissue / organ infusions through the vessel wall into organs and tumours.

SmartCella CEO Niklas Prager said: “With the new proceeds, we will continue to build our organisation and drive accelerated growth. We will have a specific focus on ramping up the commercialisation of the Extroducer, which I believe is one of the most groundbreaking innovations in targeted delivery solutions, carrying therapies directly into otherwise hard-to-reach tumours or organs.

“The Extroducer, combined with our world-class research and knowledge in cell and mRNA therapies, makes SmartCella unique. This capital raise is a landmark event for us – and our journey has only just begun.”
