Executive Summary
UK company Lombard Medical has raised up to £2.5m ($3.9m), with a £2m pledged by private equity firm Camden Partners. The US equity firm may also subscribe to a further £300,000, Lombard says. The company is aiming the funds at developing cardiovascular products, a market which was estimated at £13bn in 2001. The market is forecast to grow to £20.4bn in 2004, the London-based company says. "I am delighted to be able to announce the success of the fund raising achieved in a very difficult market where many companies were postponing or cancelling their fundraising activities," said Alistair Taylor, Lombard's chairman.
