MMI (Medical Microinstruments, Inc.), a robotics company dedicated to increasing treatment options and improving clinical outcomes for patients with complex conditions, today announced that it has raised $110 million in Series C financing. The round, led by Fidelity Management & Research Company, marks the largest ever investment in microsurgery innovation.
The funds will support commercialization of the Symani® Surgical System in high-growth markets and continued investment in studies that generate clinical evidence and enable indication expansion. Investments will also accelerate advanced technology capabilities and enable MMI to scale its operational capabilities globally.
MMI and its existing investors, all of whom contributed to the Series C financing, see considerable opportunity for rapid growth. The company projects the market for eligible robotic microsurgical procedures will grow from 3 million to 22 million annually by 2028, driven primarily by technological advancements and indication expansion.
“Against a backdrop of plateauing investments in medical robotics, this support builds on our confidence in a new, less invasive solution for open surgery, a significant market that can benefit from the smallest wristed microinstruments,” said Mark Toland, CEO of MMI. “Our Symani Surgical System is uniquely positioned to expand patient access to care by accelerating the number of surgeons able to perform complex, delicate procedures. With the support of our investors, we will continue to advance our technology through a growing body of clinical evidence and expanded hospital partnerships.”
The Symani Surgical System is a first-of-its-kind robotic technology that uniquely addresses the scale and complexities of microsurgery and supermicrosurgery. By allowing surgeons to replicate the natural movements of the human hand at the micro scale, it can expand treatment options for patients in need of soft tissue, open surgical procedures, such as free flap reconstructions, lymphatic surgery, and trauma replantations. It is designed to help restore quality of life for more patients, accelerate the number of surgeons able to push the boundaries of complex procedures for delicate anatomy, and enable hospitals to expand their open surgical programs.
MMI has raised over $200 million in funding to date. In 2022, it closed a Series B financing round to propel growth. The funding was allocated to help expand indications and support ongoing commercialization efforts for the Symani Surgical System in Europe, where it received CE mark in 2019, accelerate plans to commercialize in the U.S. and Asia-Pacific, and advance clinical research.

EADV 2025: Almirall Advances Skin Science and Leads Innovation for Holistic Patient Care in Medical Dermatology17.9.2025 08:57:00 CEST | Press release
Almirall’s scientific presence at the 34th EADV congress reflects its broad portfolio of dermatological treatments and patient-centric approach - featuring 44 abstracts, two expert-led symposia on atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, and an interactive booth. Lebrikizumab’s effectiveness in the treatment of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis is demonstrated by new real-world evidence, and long-term efficacy and patient well-being data. New real-world data demonstrate tildrakizumab’s effectiveness in the treatment of psoriasis in high-impact areas of the body and across multiple patient groups - particularly elderly patients and those with high disease burden. Almirall’s pipeline progress includes new initial phase 1 data on a developmental treatment for Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS), LAD191 a monoclonal antibody targeting the Interleukin-1 Receptor Accessory Protein (IL-1RAP) shows preliminary signs of clinical symptom improvements, and a favourable safety and tolerability profile.

Deepfakes Already Hitting Businesses as Often as Traditional Fraud, Regula Survey Finds17.9.2025 08:00:00 CEST | Press release
Fresh survey data from Regula, a global developer of identity verification (IDV) solutions and forensic devices, shows that the line between traditional fraud and impersonation attacks has vanished. Identity spoofing, biometric fraud, and AI-powered deepfakes have already struck one in three organizations worldwide, catching up with long-standing fraud tactics like forged documents and social engineering. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250916314726/en/ Regula’s survey shows that impersonation attacks overtake traditional fraud schemes. Three impersonation-driven tactics now dominate the fraud playbook, each exploiting weaknesses in verification: Identity spoofing (reported by 34% of organizations) — Holding up a printed photo, replaying a video, or showing a screen image to a camera. Often used to mass-open accounts for scams or mule networks. Biometric fraud (34%) — Physical deceptions like fake fingerprints
Overture Life Launches European Preorder Waitlist for DaVitri, the World’s First Microfluidics-Based Automated Vitrification Platform17.9.2025 07:00:00 CEST | Press release
Ahead of receipt of anticipated CE Mark, European customers can begin requesting DaVitri to expand patient access to high-quality IVF Overture Life, the innovator modernizing IVF to optimize reproductive freedom, today announced the launch of its European preorder waitlist for DaVitri, the world’s first automated vitrification platform. The waitlist ensures in vitro fertilization (IVF) facilities will be among the first in Europe to harness DaVitri to reduce manual workloads for their embryologists while eliminating operator variability, thereby providing patients with faster, more consistent procedures. As infertility rates spike worldwide, interest in egg freezing continues to rise while the infrastructure to support it lags behind. Egg freezing requires vitrification, typically a time-intensive, manual process vulnerable to human error that can only be performed by extensively trained embryologists. This has resulted in variability in egg and embryo survival rates that directly impa
