Sower Ventures | Partner Spotlight: Vesalio
Sower Ventures’ strategy of generating substantial equity multiple returns for our investors is built on partnerships with innovators advancing solutions in critical areas of healthcare. One of those innovators is Vesalio, a medical device company focused on improving outcomes for patients suffering from ischemic stroke.
Advancing Stroke Care
Vesalio has developed the NeVa™ platform, a next-generation mechanical thrombectomy system designed to restore blood flow in patients experiencing acute ischemic stroke. Stroke remains one of the leading causes of disability and death worldwide, and rapid intervention is critical. The NeVa™ system uses an advanced stent retriever design that maximizes clot integration and removal, leading to higher rates of successful revascularization and better functional outcomes for patients.
Why It Matters
Mechanical thrombectomy has become the standard of care for large vessel occlusion strokes, but current technologies leave room for improvement in first-pass success rates and overall patient recovery. Vesalio’s differentiated approach seeks to address these challenges by improving clot capture and reducing procedure time, ultimately increasing the likelihood of favorable neurological outcomes.
Global Impact and Growth
Based in Nashville, TN, Vesalio has expanded its presence globally, with the NeVa™ system currently available in over 20 countries and clinical studies underway to expand access in the United States. As adoption grows, Vesalio is well-positioned to become a leader in advancing stroke intervention worldwide.
Partnership and Investment Strategy
Sower Ventures, through its investment relationship with Solas BioVentures, has supported Vesalio as part of its strategy to back companies bringing transformative healthcare technologies to market. By investing in Vesalio, we are aligning with our mission of supporting innovations that not only offer attractive financial returns but also significantly improve patient care and quality of life.
