Some investments made in 2015<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

Innoup Pharma- Biotechnology<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Sodena <\/a><\/span>and the venture capital company Inveready<\/a><\/span> invested in October 2015 \u20ac2M in Innoup Pharma<\/a><\/span>a company dedicated to the application of nanoparticle technology in oral cancer drugs to decrease toxicity.<\/span><\/p>\n

With this round, the company was able to complete the regulatory preclinical development of one of the leading intravenous anticancer drugs targeted at metastatic breast cancer.<\/span><\/p>\n

InnoUp expects in less than two years to attract interest from other investors for further development and the securing of a relevant licensing agreement.<\/span><\/p>\n

Davalor Health- Tics e-health<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Davalor<\/a><\/span> is a vision assessment system, called EVA, which operates autonomously and is connected to the company's databases. Using dynamic images and video games in \"true 3D\", it stimulates the eyes and brain and measures responses according to 75 clinical parameters.<\/span><\/p>\n

The company had previously raised \u20ac12M through crowdfunding on the Bestaker platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

La inversi\u00f3n de Sodena <\/a><\/span>arrived at a time when the company had not yet started selling its product. With no income and with payment obligations to employees and suppliers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Currently, it appears that a Chinese industrial group wants to invest \u20ac17M in the company, to acquire the 25% and provide immediate liquidity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Iden Biotech- Agroalimentario<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Sodena contributed \u20ac1M, in a \u20ac4M round in the company Iden Biotech, led by CRB Inverbio<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Iden Biotechnology<\/a><\/span>founded in 2005, has two main lines of work: the identification and development of plant genes of agronomic value to improve the production of crops of agronomic interest and the development of products of biological origin which, when applied to crops, give them greater resistance and productivity, allowing a significant reduction in the use of agrochemicals.<\/span><\/p>\n

Successful divestments in 2015: Apex<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

Apex<\/a> is a company based in Ribaforada, which produces snacks, including the famous Aspitos.<\/span><\/p>\n

The current Apex has little or nothing to do with the one in which Sodena invested \u20ac1.6m in 2008. At that time, the company was owned by the Borges group. While Apex's management was committed to growth through the acquisition of companies, the Borges group was not willing to invest.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thus, in 2008, Sodena became a shareholder. It invested \u20ac1.6M and took 28.56%. Together with Sodena, it also became a shareholder. Major Key<\/a> through the funds Punto Futuro (28.56%) and Real de Vell\u00f3n (7%). Between Sodena and Clave Mayor they had control of the shareholding.<\/span><\/p>\n

Apex's turnover grew from \u20ac10.7m in 2008 to \u20ac50m in 2015 and its workforce grew from 95 people to 230. In February 2011, they acquired the Valencian firm Papas Vidal and five months later, in July, they acquired another in Le\u00f3n.<\/span>
