Financial Performance:

• Rising Prevalence of Venous Diseases: Obesity, sedentary lifestyles, aging population are all increasing the number of people suffering from this disease, which drives the industry growth.

• Unmet Medical Needs: Many patients are not satisfied with available treatment options. There is a need for a non-surgical, minimally invasive approach, which could provide additional opportunities to companies like enVVeno.
