Avingtrans has invested £2.5m in cash in Adaptix Ltd to acquire a 5.9% holding by participating in Adaptix’s latest £12.9m funding round. Adaptix is looking to transform radiology by bringing to market its low cost, low dose portable imaging technology based around its proprietary Flat Panel X-ray Source (FPS). Avingtrans intends to collaborate with Adaptix to develop a disruptive business offering that envisages bringing together its low cost 3D MRI, through Magnetica, with Adaptix’s 3D X-ray and also potentially ultrasound in a solution for medical and veterinary applications. The collaboration is expected to deliver cost and market synergies for both businesses and creates an interesting additive pathway to enhance shareholder value.
