PRESS RELEASE
Kyruus, a leading healthcare Big Data company, today announced the closing of an
$11M Series B financing. The investment was led by Lux Capital, with
participation from Fidelity Biosciences as well as existing investors Venrock
and Highland Capital Partners. The financing brings the total amount raised by
Kyruus to $19.6M since its inception in 2010.

“We are delighted to partner with Lux and Fidelity as we enter the next phase of
our company`s growth,” said Graham Gardner, CEO of Kyruus. “Both firms bring
important relationships with large numbers of healthcare organizations that
today wrestle with how to understand and engage their physician networks. We
believe our applications can transform the way these organizations coordinate
physician expertise and optimize the delivery of patient care.”

Over the last year, Kyruus has quickly established a customer base of over 20
leading healthcare organizations from across the country, ranging from community
hospitals to large multi-facility health systems. The company`s product platform
enables organizations to optimize the performance of their physician networks
across the areas of network development, referral management, and regulatory
compliance. Kyruus will use the new funds to expand its sales and marketing
efforts across each of these solution areas.

In conjunction with the financing, Robert Paull, Managing General Partner at Lux
Capital, will join the Kyruus Board of Directors. “Large healthcare
organizations are by nature extraordinarily complex,” said Paull. “Kyruus solves
difficult data problems – providing customers with the clarity to make more
informed decisions. Lux is excited to help a remarkable group of entrepreneurs
build a defining healthcare information company.”
