Congrats to Kara LeBlanc and MedReddie for closing its oversubscribed pre-seed round with support from BDC’s #ThriveLab and The Firehood. The company is using AI to transform medical technology procurement and improve health system outcomes, raised $782,000, and will use the investment to fuel its multi-pronged market expansion. Earlier this year, the company was one of only three Canadian startups that earned a spot in Google's North American Women Founders accelerator program.
Managing Director, Thrive Lab - BDC Capital - Innovation Lab and Investment for Women-led impact-driven businesses
🚀 Exciting News! Thrive Lab is thrilled to announce our investment in MedReddie. Lab Excelles est ravi d’annoncer notre investissement dans MedReddie. Led by the amazing Kara LeBlanc, MedReddie has successfully closed an oversubscribed pre-seed round at an impressive $782,000. We’re so proud to support this venture alongside our co-investment partner, The Firehood (thank you Danielle Brewin Graham and Claudette M. ). 🙌 I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the incredible team members at Thrive Lab who worked tirelessly on this deal, especially Anna Ciprick and Anne-Marie Christoffersen-Deb. Their dedication and expertise made this investment possible! 🙏 Revolutionizing Healthcare Procurement, MedReddie’s innovative platform simplifies the procurement process, saving valuable time and resources. By streamlining operations, they empower healthcare professionals to focus on what truly matters: patient care. 🌟 Earlier this year, MedReddie was one of only three Canadian startups selected for Google’s North American Women Founders accelerator program. Last year, they clinched the prestigious Women+ Pitch Prize at the Elevate Festival. 🏆 https://lnkd.in/eRywvhk8 Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to support MedReddie’s mission! 💪 Sous le leadership de la talentueuse Kara LeBlanc, MedReddie a clôturé avec succès une levée de fonds pré-amorçage sursouscrite à hauteur de 782 000$. Nous sommes fières d’être aux côtés de notre partenaire, The Firehood (Merci chères Danielle Brewin Graham et Claudette M.). 🙌 La plateforme de MedReddie simplifie le processus d’approvisionnement, permettant d’économiser un temps précieux et des ressources. En optimisant les opérations, l'entreprise donne aux professionnels de la santé la possibilité de se concentrer sur l’essentiel : les soins aux patients. 🌟 Plus tôt cette année, MedReddie a été l’une des trois start-ups canadiennes sélectionnées pour le programme d’accélération des femmes fondatrices de Google en Amérique du Nord. L’année dernière, MedReddie a remporté le prestigieux prix Women + Pitch lors du festival Elevate. 🏆 Un immense merci à ma talentueuse équipe pour avoir rendu cet investissement possible! #women #founder #impact #investment #VC #canadianleader #healthtech
