Cleerly a New York-based company creating a new standard of care for heart disease, announced that it has closed a Series C financing round of $192 million. This new funding brings the total raised by the fast-growing health care company to $248 million, which includes its Series B round in 2021.
The oversubscribed funding round was led by funds and accounts advised by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. and T. Rowe Price Investment Management, Inc., and Fidelity Management and Research Company. They are joined by additional investors spanning the health care, pharmaceutical, and technology sectors, including Sands Capital, Piper Sandler’s Merchant Banking and Heartland Healthcare Capital funds, Mirae Asset Capital, Peter Thiel, Breyer Capital, and Novartis.
