OncoLens Welcomes Cross Border Impact Venture Fund as Capital Partner to Fuel International Growth

ATLANTA (PRWEB) JULY 13, 2023

OncoLens  provides an integration and collaboration platform to cancer centers, helping derive intelligence from swaths of disparate structured and unstructured data to empower centers to identify patients for clinical trials, research, biomarker testing and more. Insights derived are funneled into collaboration workflows and matched with clinical decision support to assist often siloed multi-disciplinary teams to determine the best plan forward for the patient.

With the investment and partnership from  Cross Border, OncoLens plans to expand its domestic and global footprint into regions including rural communities and low-middle income countries where there are needs to add capacity, resources and access to shared expertise to identify the right diagnostics and treatments for patients, as well as support much needed diversity and inclusion in access and research.

With more than 200 cancer centers in the U.S and clients in the larger EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) region, OncoLens’ network enables cross collaboration between multiple entities whether they are academic center/NCIs (national cancer institutes) and their community affiliates, large integrated delivery networks (IDNs) or across international borders. “With this new investment from Cross Border, we are excited to align our existing and future clients to international collaboration, improved patient care, and revenue opportunities,” says Anju Mathew, CEO of OncoLens.

“With an established network, OncoLens is on the cusp of creating an unprecedented global network of oncology providers that will open up access to cutting edge solutions for patients, enable global collaboration and intelligence sharing across the oncology ecosystem. We look forward to participating on this journey with the OncoLens team,” says Donna Parr, managing director and partner at Cross Border Impact Ventures.
