The healthcare supply chain represents an unprecedented opportunity for disruption. With HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS IN ANNUAL SPENDÃÂ it is one of the largest sectors of the entire economy AND it is mired in a terribly inefficient marketplace
Evansville’s Curvo Labs pitched their business concept at Tech-on-Tap v4.0 in December 2012. They have been working relatively quietly on their product development strategy; ÃÂ to NAIL It then SCALE It. They have certainly succeeded in nailing it. If they meet the same success scaling it Curvo could ÃÂ achieve impacts of historic proportion.
Join Curvo’s co-founder’s, Andy Perry and Steve Suhrheinrich as they recount their path from startup to scaleup at this very special Tech-on-Tap. If you don’t know these guys and this company – you should!
EVANSVILLE –
Evansville-based Curvo Labs Inc. has landed $900,000 in funding. The support comes from a group that includes two recently-appointed advisors and Elevate Ventures. The tech company has raised $2.1 million since its founding in 2012.
Curvo develops software for health care supply chain management professionals. Officials say annual recurring revenue jumped five-fold in 2016 and the latest investment will beef up Curvo Labs’ sales and customer support resources. The funds will also help with innovation of its sourcing platform.
Chief Executive Officer Andy Perry says “there is a real bandwidth problem inside our hospital supply chains, but our industry doesn’t have to accept this as reality. We spend our time as a company understanding our customers’ work day, what they’re trying to accomplish, and their organizational goals, and we build SaaS technology and customer success functions to make it faster and easier to get things done.”
Florida-based Snake Run Capital founder Kent Parker led the funding round. He was joined by Florida software executive Steve Piotraczk, Elevate Ventures and additional angel investors. In October, Curvo Labs added Parker, Piotraczk, former Idaho-based St. Luke’s Health System Chief Medical Officer Tom Faciszewski, Brent Petty of Kentucky-based Lexmark and Brian Groves of Illinois-based Strata Decision TechnologyÃÂ were added as Curvo advisors.
Curvo Labs’ funding connection with Elevate Ventures dates back to 2013 when the companyÃÂ received $50,000ÃÂ as part of theÃÂ Indiana Community Development Fund program.
