11.5.2022 15:02:07 CEST | Business Wire | Press release
Alira Health (www.alirahealth.com ), a global healthcare advisory and technology company, today announced the acquisition of RedCrow, an alternative investment platform that provides individual investors with easy access to expert-vetted healthcare start-ups. The financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
RedCrow was launched in 2016 by Brian Smith, a former Morgan Stanley financial advisor, and Jerry Harrison, an entrepreneur and member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with Talking Heads. RedCrow mines the “wisdom of the crowd” to help find companies that resonate with an audience that may not only use a product but also invest in and realize a return from the company that invented it. This acquisition extends Alira Health’s ability to partner with patients across the lifecycle of drug and device development into the financing phase for early-stage pharma, MedTech, and healthcare services solutions.
“From personal experience, the founders at RedCrow recognize that not every drug or device receives the right investment,” said Gabriele Brambilla, CEO, and founder of Alira Health. “By reinventing and democratizing the way early-stage companies get funded, RedCrow helps more healthcare solutions come to market that can save patients’ lives. Alira Health already partners with patients across the development lifecycle. With RedCrow, we can now involve patients, their care circles, and other investors in the financing phase for new products that may also improve their care outcomes.”
RedCrow’s Brian Smith added, “We founded RedCrow with the belief that healthcare investing should be more immediate, transparent, and accessible, and that patients and their family members should be able to help fund future developments that may impact their own care. We embrace Alira Health’s mission to humanize healthcare and view our platform as a natural extension of Alira Health’s business model. At the same time, early-stage companies on the RedCrow platform can benefit from the breadth of Alira Health’s extensive services offering.”
Since its founding, RedCrow has marketed over 250 fundraises totaling $250 million. Recent success stories include HeartBeam (NASDAQ: BEAT), Sen Jam Pharmaceutical, Activ Surgical and Centerline Biomedical.
