Avive raised $22 million in its recent Series A funding round to further develop its intelligent automated external defibrillator technology and platform that work like Doordash, but for AED delivery and help during cardiac arrest; it is already piloting its program in select cities.
RapidSOS Aims to Prevent More Heart Attacks With New Deal
As public safety agencies embrace new software, more companies are forming partnerships and networks. The deals could enable more access to life-saving data when first responders arrive on scene.
August 03, 2021 •
RapidSOS has struck two new deals including one designed to better protect people against cardiac arrest in more signs of the ongoing digital expansion of public safety technology.
The New York-based startup has struck a deal with Avive Solutions, a San Francisco-based health-care technology company, to improve out-of-hospital emergency responses to heart attacks.
Avive makes automated external defibrillators (AED) that, according to a company video, can be stored in such places as offices, homes and public areas, allowing quicker deployment of the machines. Avive s technology is still under review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and is not yet for sale in this country.
