Congratulations to our portfolio company Inura for being selected for the loan “100 fürs Baselbiet” from BLKB. Inura will receive a total of 500,000 CHF!
“100 fürs Baselbiet” is an initiative organized by BLKB, the University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland FHNW, and the Baselland Economic Development Agency. This future-oriented program facilitates access to financial resources as well as advisory services for innovative SMEs and start-ups related to the Basel area.

The “100 fürs Baselbiet” purpose is based on strong collaborations between industry, science, and government. The goal is to help SMEs and start-ups to expand. Besides, this initiative intends to enhance the attractiveness and innovative capabilities, create jobs, and add economic value to the region. Interested companies have gone through a two-stage selection process. First, you submit your business idea with the associated financial plan. Afterward, if there is positive feedback, an independent advisory board assesses the companies’ applications pre-selected in so-called pitches. Subsequently, the Advisory Board decides which ideas and companies will receive support.
The selected companies receive financing in the form of loans from BLKB. Obtaining this loan indicates the confidence that the Advisory Board has in the project and the team. The criteria are, among other things, the innovative strength and sustainability of the ideas presented and the quality of the entrepreneurial team. At HEMEX, we believe as well on Inura’s project and its team. Therefore, we are thrilled to see them acomplishing this achievement.

Hemex has a strong track record in women’s health and we immediately saw the potential of Inura’s urethral suppository platform. If you would like to know more about Inura, check their website HERE.
