Adam Plich, Founder and CEO of Avanzanite.
The announcement follows a record-breaking Q3 2025 for Avanzanite, with revenue tripling year-on-year and climbing over 20% quarter-on-quarter. This strategic funding will accelerate the expansion of Avanzanite’s pan-European infrastructure and propel both current and future rare disease product launches. The capital will also enable Avanzanite to form new strategic alliances and acquire assets to expand its portfolio.
Avanzanite was built to solve Europe’s rare-disease medicines access gap. Under one pan-European operation, Avanzanite brings together commercial excellence, scientific expertise, and deep functional capability across market access, pricing and reimbursement. This fully integrated approach enables biotech and pharma innovators to bring rare disease medicines to patients across all 32 European markets – an area where traditional go-to-market models often fail.
“We are truly honoured to partner with MVM, a top-tier investor in life sciences. Their investment is far more than capital – it demonstrates conviction in our mission and belief in the ‘Champions League’ team that powers Avanzanite,” said Adam Plich, Founder and CEO of Avanzanite. “With MVM’s support we will scale faster, expand with new partnerships and assets, and advance towards our 2032 vision of a pan-European platform with more than ten rare disease alliances – setting a new European standard for orphan medicine commercialisation and patient access. While this milestone reflects how far we’ve come, it is just the beginning of our journey,” concluded Plich.
In just three years, with three strategic alliances, Avanzanite has become the partner of choice for biotech and pharma innovators seeking to unlock the full European potential of their orphan medicines. Avanzanite’s current portfolio comprises three medicines across nephrology, ophthalmology and haematology with exclusive licensing or distribution rights in countries across the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland.
MVM is investing up to €32 million from its €500 million sixth fund. In addition, MVM has reserved significant capital to drive Avanzanite’s growth beyond the current round. MVM is Avanzanite’s first institutional investor and joins the company’s Board of Directors.
Dr. Jack Tanaka, Partner at MVM commented, “For years MVM has watched promising rare disease medicines struggle to find a path to patients - Avanzanite breaks this pattern. In a short space of time, Avanzanite has successfully launched multiple rare disease products. Their experienced leadership team and pan-European footprint make them the stand-out partner. We are excited to support Avanzanite in bringing more transformative therapies to patients across Europe.”
