The Company: 

Hepta Medical is a French MedTech company developing a minimally invasive treatment for lung cancer. Their proprietary device is a flexible microwave ablation probe that can be introduced into the patient’s lung through the airway to locally ablate and destroy cancerous tissue. What makes their technology unique is its integrated temperature monitoring system, which allows real-time control of the ablation zone—making treatments safer, more precise, and more effective.
Following a successful Series A funding round, Hepta Medical is now entering an exciting new phase: the launch of its first clinical operations across Europe and beyond.
