Genetic profile company ActX raises $6M, filing shows
ActX, a biotech company based in Seattle, has raised $6 million in equity funding and is seeking an additional $107,000 to further its work in genetic profile testing.
The company, founded in 2013, uses genetic testing to aid medical professionals screening patients for conditions based on hereditary risks. The technology empowers physicians to make decisions based on a patient’s genetic profile and helps patients understand how genetic conditions affect their children.
