Two Start-ups at EPFL Raise 14 Million Francs

A series of successes for EPFL start-ups. By the end of a successful round of financing, two new businesses founded in the Science Park of the School, Kandou and Aleva, had raised, respectively, 10 and 4 million francs. EPFL spin-offs do well. Kandou developed a technology that drastically improves communication between the components of electronic devices. An investor gave them 10 million francs for production. And Aleva Neurotherapeutics creates deep brain stimulation systems for use particularly against symptoms of Parkinson's disease. A group of investors gave the start-up 4 million francs.
