Glytec, a provider of AI-powered technology for diabetes care, secures a $36M growth investment led by Savitr Capital and Hayfin Capital Management.
The funding will support the expansion of Glytec's platform, including Glucommander® SaaS solution, and the development of new technologies to improve inpatient glycemic control.
The investment aligns with the growing need to enhance inpatient glycemic management as healthcare systems face pressure to improve performance with new CMS quality measures.
Diabetes and related conditions continue to burden the healthcare system, with over one-third of hospitalized patients requiring insulin therapy.
Poor management of high blood sugar leads to adverse events for over 2 million patients annually and costs the healthcare system more than $8 billion.
Despite significant risks, many hospitals lack glucose management metrics and automated methods for tracking hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia rates.
Glytec's Glucommander® SaaS solution, trusted by over 400 hospitals nationwide, aims to improve patient safety, reduce costs, and increase revenue through cloud-based insulin management.
The new investment will be used to expand research and development efforts, scale the platform, and attract skilled talent to drive innovation.
Glytec's CEO, Patrick Cua, views this investment as pivotal in empowering clinicians with data-driven insights for personalized care in diabetes and metabolic conditions.
