The transaction will fund expansion of the healthcare software company through an innovative funding structure
CHICAGO, Aug. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- CancerIQ, a best-in-class precision health platform that empowers healthcare providers to personalize cancer prevention and early detection for their patients, has landed a growth funding package from Decathlon Capital Partners. Details of the transaction were not disclosed.
The growth funding will be used for continued investment in platform development, introduction of new offerings, and support of the company's overall growth with health system and hospital partnerships. The easy-to-use digital platform equips providers in any setting to identify patients' lifetime and hereditary risk, use the most up-to-date guidance to improve uptake of genetic testing, and increase adherence to personalize cancer care plans — all integrated into EHR workflows.
Feyi Olopade Ayodele, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of CancerIQ, said the level of personalization to the platform is what sets CancerIQ apart from its competitors. "The CancerIQ platform is designed to help providers ensure every patient receives the necessary care to manage their individual cancer risk — from prevention and early detection to treatment and survivorship," Ayodele said. "It's time to abandon the one-size-fits-all approach to cancer prevention and ensure people get the care they need to stay ahead of cancer."
Ben Bowman, Chief Financial Officer of CancerIQ, said CancerIQ will not have to give up any equity, ownership, or control of the company in exchange for the capital from Decathlon Capital Partners. "We're grateful to be working with such a flexible payment structure where we can repay the investment through our future revenues," Bowman said.
John Borchers, Managing Director of Decathlon Capital Partners, said CancerIQ is good for both patients and healthcare providers. "This platform really is a win-win," Borchers said. "Not only can patients be confident that they are being put on the best cancer prevention or early detection plan for them, but CancerIQ also assists the healthcare provider in managing their business by tracking revenue impact and identifying opportunities to grow patient impact."
