Atalanta Therapeutics’ Post

RiverVest welcomes Atalanta Therapeutics to our portfolio of novel biopharmaceutical therapeutics, with RiverVest Managing Director Niall O'Donnell joining the company’s board of directors. We look forward to supporting Atalanta CEO Alicia Secor and team in advancing the company's two lead programs — for KCNT1-related pediatric epilepsy and Huntington’s disease — through clinical proof-of-concept.  We believe Atalanta’s RNAi therapies could truly be a transformational approach to addressing these and other life-threatening neurological diseases.

He firmly believes if approved by the FDA, with a slated time period of early August, that would we could see the following .. “I think you could see a market move unlike anything for an industry throughout public markets history” Does it seem bold? Well think about what’s happened this year. atai Life Sciences $50m investment into Beckley Psytech. Cybin Inc raising $150m with a number of strategic biotech investors. MindMed and the $175m they raised after their ground breaking phase 2 results. Reunion Neuroscience raising $103m. Not to mention, Lykos raised $100m back in January. If approved, you’re only going to see the valuation of this company increase dramatically. Check our latest podcast in the comment section.
