The fund’s investment portfolio includes companies in medical devices, diagnostics, and therapeutics, with investments in Europe, Israel, and the US. Some of Kidron’s inaugural investments include Beyond Medicine, targeting mitochondria to improve health as people age and ease menopausal symptoms; Portal, providing scalable solutions for oncology clinics treating women with cancer; and Renal Guard, offering a solution for Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) with a heightened risk for women undergoing cardiac surgery.
