By GlobalDataOneProjects CEO Fionn Lahart said: “This investment will help us to further build our team in Dublin and Munich, advance product development and, ultimately, achieve our goal of helping physicians provide far better treatment for patients, suffering from AFib.”
OneProjects was founded in 2017 by Fionn Lahart and chief technology officer (CTO) Christoph Hennersperger. The company focuses on developing the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, including AFib.
The disease, which often causes strokes and other heart conditions, affects more than 38 million people worldwide.
According to the American Heart Association, at least 2.7 million Americans are currently living with AFib.
If left untreated, atrial fibrillation is likely to double the risk of heart-related deaths. It is also said to be associated with a five-fold increased risk of stroke.
