AVS Revolutionizes Arterial Disease Treatment with New Headquarters in Boston's Seaport District
Gracie Gottlieb | 21 September, 2023
Boston's Seaport District welcomes AVS as it opens its global headquarters to support its revolutionary PIVL™ therapy for arterial disease. The new 9,365-square-foot facility in the heart of innovation will serve as a hub for research, development, and collaboration.
As AVS aims for regulatory approval in the U.S., the company's Chairman of the Board, Mark Toland, highlights the advantages of being situated in one of the nation's most vibrant hotbeds for innovation. The new space is expected to facilitate the company's growth in bringing the next generation intravascular lithotripsy therapy to both peripheral and coronary artery disease patients.
Equipped with state-of-the-art technology, the headquarters spans 3,500 square feet and includes dedicated research and development areas, testing facilities, and assembly and packaging spaces. Located at 451 D Street, a historic building renovated in 2016, the headquarters offers easy access to transportation and major airports.
AVS has experienced significant growth since January 2023, reaching several milestones, including the appointment of Sean Gilligan as the Chief Operating Officer. Gilligan's over 30 years of executive leadership experience in the medical device industry, including 15 years at Boston Scientific, will contribute to AVS's continued success.
In April, AVS secured $28.8 million in Series B financing, led by BioStar Capital and CUE Growth Partners. The funds have supported ongoing clinical trials focusing on peripheral arteries. Additionally, AVS successfully completed the first-in-human clinical trial for peripheral vascular cases, with full trial results expected to be presented at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) conference in October.
The opening of the new headquarters is a testament to AVS's progress and commitment to bringing its innovative solution to the market. Gilligan highlights the company's accelerated capabilities and hybrid manufacturing strategy, which leverages internal resources and partnerships with experienced contract manufacturers for an efficient path to market.
