Bug Killer Device Startup Raises Second Round
AirInSpace, a developer of devices that ‘catch and kill’ infectious bacteria and viruses, has raised $8.5M (€6M) in a Series “B” round of financing, according to Aelios Finance blog.
This is more of a medtech deal and not really our beat, but a lot of our readers spend time in airplanes, so we figure this startup's products have a human interest appeal.
The five year old company has three different types of mobile units, but its technology - whose roots reach back to the Russian space program -- can also be used in airplanes to filter out nasty germs, it said in a statement.
Investors are French fund manager Matignon Technologies II FCPR and French private bank Oddo AM (through FCPI Générations Futures)
