Qualcomm, Norwest Venture Back Attune Technologies in USD10 Series B

Cloud-based healthcare software company Attune Technologies recently raised USD10 million in its Series B round. According to TechCrunch, the round was participated by Qualcomm Ventures and Norwest West Venture Partners, a returning investor.

Attune was founded in 2008 with the idea to provide an integrated cloud-based platform for clinics, hospitals and other medical facilities to connect devices such as lab analyzers and ICU machines in a network, Firstpost said. Attune’s platform can reportedly serve a single general practice clinic to a HIS/EMR network.

The money raised from the Series B fund will purportedly be used to expand its growing market share in India. The company’s network currently hosts 10 million patient records for 2,500 healthcare facilities.

Arvind Kumar, Founder and CEO of Attune, said in a statement, "Technology is at the core of what we do at Attune. We are constantly upgrading our technology and innovating new solutions to make healthcare affordable, seamless and efficient for the entire healthcare value chain."
