Redox Raises $9M Led by RRE Ventures to Scale Interoperable Network of Health Systems and Applications
MADISON, WI--(Marketwired - January 24, 2017) - Redox, the leading integration platform for digital healthcare applications, announced today that it has closed a $9 million Series B financing. RRE Ventures led the round with participation from existing investors .406 Ventures, HealthX Ventures, and Flybridge Capital Partners. Redox will use the new capital to accelerate its product roadmap along the way to building the industry standard platform for seamless interoperability between health technology developers and health systems.
Redox launched in 2014 to build a secure network of integrated healthcare applications and health systems through which any organization connected becomes functionally interoperable. The Redox network has grown more than tenfold in the past year and now processes nearly a million clinical messages per day.
"We founded Redox around the idea that a networked approach is the only scalable way to achieve the promise of full interoperability," said Luke Bonney, CEO and co-founder of Redox. "We view it as our mission to help the industry break the habit of building point-to-point connections that are expensive, unreliable, and ultimately exacerbate the problem. Our interoperable network becomes more efficient with each node we add. While we support various healthcare data standardization initiatives, we don't think our clients should have to wait for these new standards to mature when, today, Redox can unlock the potential that full interoperability brings."
"Redox has reached a key inflection point in attacking an enormous problem in healthcare," said Raju Rishi, general partner at RRE Ventures. "The proliferation of healthcare applications promises better data, better patient care, and better outcomes. Redox is helping application companies and health systems alike to realize that promise. We're enormously excited to partner with Redox and look forward to helping the company scale its solutions across the market." With this investment, Raju has joined Redox's board of directors.
As the pendulum swings in industry's regulatory environment, health systems are increasingly looking for new technologies to improve the patient experience and care delivery.
Niko Skievaski, President and Co-founder of Redox added "the free flow of healthcare data is critical to accelerating the discovery and adoption of solutions that improve our health. We couldn't be more excited to be ushering forth this future of technology-enabled healthcare."
"As an investor in the digital health and innovative care delivery companies, we were painfully familiar with the limitations created by a lack of interoperability between systems," said Liam Donohue, managing partner of .406 Ventures. "Redox's solution and vision immediately resonated and is being validated by their expanding network. We are very excited to welcome RRE Ventures onto the Redox team and look forward to working with them and the Redox team to build a very important company."
In addition to application developers, Redox works directly with health systems to integrate with their network of applications, interoperate with affiliated providers and hospitals, and share clinical data with payers.
