Lumeda Inc., a medical technology company focused on applying Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) as an adjuvant treatment for lung cancer patients, today announced it has been selected for inclusion in the Hartford Business Journal’s inaugural Tech 25. The list includes “companies to watch” from a wide range of industries that are making moves with new products, raising capital, or have a promising technology or drug that can generate revenue while also potentially saving lives and creating new jobs.

No, it’s not the start of a joke. Rather, it’s the origin story of Lumeda Inc., a Rocky Hill startup with a mission of reshaping the treatment of lung cancer.
Paul Sanders, co-founder of Lumeda, describes the meeting of Connecticut photonics experts and western New York oncology innovators as little short of serendipity. But the result is a technology that may soon enable more people to survive non-small cell lung cancer.
