Nucleai adds Andy Harrison and Cris De Luca to Board along with raising $33m Series B financing led by Section 32 and Sanofi Ventures

– ISRAEL, Tel Aviv –  Nucleai, an AI-powered spatial biology company with a mission to transform drug development and clinical treatment decisions by unlocking the power of pathology data, today announced that it had closed a $33 million Series B financing round, jointly led by Section 32 and Sanofi Ventures along with existing investors Debiopharm, Fosun RZ Capital, Vertex Ventures, and Grove Ventures, also participating.

Concurrent with the financing, the company also announced the appointments of Andy Harrison, Managing Partner at Section 32, and Cris De Luca, Global Head, Digital Investments at Sanofi Ventures, to its Board of Directors.

Section 32 Managing Partner Dr. Michael Pellini (MD) will join the Board as an observer.

This Series B financing brings Nucleai’s overall funding to close to $50 million since the company was founded four years ago.

“Nucleai’s vision is to bring spatial biology to the forefront of precision medicine and to embed the use of our platform in every clinical trial involving tissue over the next few years. We are pleased to bring world-class investors who share our passion and vision to transform drug development and clinical treatment decisions by combining artificial intelligence, big data, spatial biology, and a comprehensive software platform,” said CEO, Avi Veidman.

Andy Harrison said, “Mapping biological microenvironments with spatial mapping technology is an exciting area of discovery that is paving the way for innovative new therapies and diagnostic tools. Nucleai has built a platform that makes spatial analysis scalable and operational, enabling the next generation of actionable insights from massive pathology data sets that have not been analyzed to their fullest potential and could provide significant value to pharmaceutical companies and diagnostic labs.”

Cris De Luca added, “The rapid growth and achievements of the Nucleai team have them well-positioned to be spatial biology platform leaders, transforming current approaches to pathology. By harnessing artificial intelligence with spatial data and other data modalities, Nucleai is enabling researchers and clinicians to make better treatment decisions for patients based on a comprehensive, holistic view of cellular locations, interactions, and the tumor microenvironment.”
