LOS ANGELES, March 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Nervonik, Inc. (Nervonik), a medical device company developing an opioid-free peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) system, has successfully closed a $13 million Series A funding round. The round was led by U.S. Venture Partners (USVP), with participation from Foothill Ventures, Correlation Ventures, and other investors. This funding follows Nervonik’s earlier $4.4 million in SAFE and convertible note financings from Shangbay Capital, Camford Capital, Joyance Partners, Life Science Angels, Seraph Group, and other investors.
The proceeds from this financing will be used to advance Nervonik’s clinical studies, accelerate regulatory clearance, and prepare for commercialization efforts aimed at transforming chronic pain treatment.
Nervonik recently completed its first-in-human clinical study, demonstrating the potential of its PNS technology to transform chronic pain treatment. Nervonik’s proprietary wirelessly powered PNS technology delivers minimally invasive, patient-friendly therapy for personalized pain relief.
“We are excited to receive this strong support from top institutional investors as we push forward in advancing peripheral nerve stimulation technology,” said Aydin Babakhani, PhD, founder and CEO of Nervonik. “This financing advances our mission to bring a novel solution to millions of people suffering from chronic pain.”
With chronic pain affecting over 50 million people in the U.S. alone, Nervonik’s opioid-free PNS technology will offer a compelling alternative to traditional pain management methods, targeting a multibillion-dollar market opportunity.
