Microdermics receives seed funding from e@UBC

Congratulations to Microdermics, who has received seed funding from e@UBC, just months after winning our 2016 competition!

The investment from e@UBC’s Seed Fund will allow Microdermics to continue developing their proprietary microneedle, aimed at eliminating the reliance on hypodermic needles.

The venture is currently a part of the cohort at e@UBC’s HATCH, an incubator for tech companies who are preparing to launch.

• Aspect Biosystems (2nd Place, 2014)
• Eagle Energy (Top 25, 2015)
