The company successfully closed an oversubscribed seven-figure financing round by issuing a convertible note at 8% interest to all investors. The Seed Round investment has been filled by the industry’s largest and most credible institutional investors including, The Conscious Fund, Ambria Capital, Negev Capital, K2 & Associates, Empath Ventures, Supernode, Receptor Fund, and a number of high profile high net worth Silicon Valley Executives.
“The confidence shown by investors regarding the execution capabilities of our Executive team and regarding our core technologies is humbling. The overwhelming interest to invest in our company from many of the largest and most experienced institutional investors in the Pharmaceutical and Psychedelic Sector has enabled Mycrodose to expand our original fundraising goal and strategically diversify our investor network,” said Chad Conner, Mycrodose Therapeutics’ Chief Executive Officer. “We believe that these powerful psychedelic drug compounds need to be delivered to patients in the safest and most effective method possible to minimize the potential dangers and side effects of administering an improper or unknown dosage. The many decades of experience that our team has in developing advanced drug delivery systems within the broader Pharmaceutical Industry continues to create a dominant footprint for Mycrodose in the delivery of drugs within the Psychedelic Sector.”
Mycrodose Therapeutics is widely recognized as the first company to bring Advanced Drug Delivery Technologies (ADD) into the Psychedelic Medicine Sector. Their core team has over thirty years of experience developing advanced drug delivery systems using Schedule I pharmaceutical compounds within the difficult to navigate FDA clinical environment. The company is in parallel development of two of its four core technologies; a psilocybin transdermal delivery system for treating multiple mental health indications, as well as a Ketamine oral mucosa delivery system for treatment of the oral cancer related condition known as Mucositis and other mental health indications.
The company recently completed the expansion of their state-of-the-art San Diego laboratory, which has the instrumentation needed to quantify and analyze nearly every active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) down to the millionth of a gram and determine all physicochemical parameters critical for the successful and optimum delivery of an API. The company’s core drug delivery systems each consist of various proprietary blends uniquely tailored to a specific API, including; ketamine, psilocybin, MDMA, LSD, DMT, and other compounds that improve the efficacy and stability of the final products.
Mycrodose Therapeutics believes that its IP-Protected Sustained Microdosing Technology™ is a smarter and safer approach to delivering pharmaceutical compounds to patients of all ages and allows for an expandable and scalable business model.
