Twenty-five investors participated in the equity funding round, according to the filing, which was made public on Thursday. Invenra, founded in 2011, has now raised more than $14 million in equity and debt financing, according to SEC documents.
Some of the money raised in the latest funding round will go toward research and development efforts, and to compensate executives at the company, Invenra said in the filing.
