“It is extremely gratifying that so many existing and new shareholders have shown such great interest in investing in Bioservo and we want to express our gratitude. We have now financially secured Bioservo's ability to vigorously process the market over the next few years, and I look forward with confidence to that Ironhand will become a natural preventive equipment for employees with demanding work tasks in the industry and to take the next generation of Carbonhand and later also Ironarm to commercial launch”, says Petter Bäckgren, CEO Bioservo.
