TEL AVIV & LOS ANGELES, August 17, 2023 – Nuvo Group Ltd. (“Nuvo”), the creators of INVU by Nuvo^™, an FDA-cleared remote pregnancy monitoring platform, and LAMF Global Ventures Corp. I (Nasdaq: LGVC, LGVCU, LGVCW) (“LAMF”), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, today announced that they have entered into a definitive business combination agreement. Upon the closing of the transaction, which is expected in the first quarter of 2024, the combined public company is expected to be listed on Nasdaq.

Nuvo is a leading innovator in women’s health and connected pregnancy care, and has developed INVU by Nuvo^™, an FDA-cleared, prescription-initiated, remote pregnancy monitoring platform that enables the delivery of remote non-stress tests (“NSTs”) and maternal and fetal heart rate monitoring, helping expectant people adhere to their prescribed care plan. INVU has two FDA clearances and enables a connected care experience between expectant parents and the clinicians by shifting the point-of-care to the expectant mother, designed to enable access to high quality care from anywhere.

Nuvo has signed U.S.-based relationship agreements with Penn Medicine, Axia Women’s Health, Banner Health, Ouma, and others, positioning Nuvo to address market opportunities in the U.S. with a multi-channel commercial strategy. Additionally, Nuvo is expanding its network of university hospital partners that are gateways to international commercialization, including signed agreements with Charite University Hospital, one of the most prestigious university hospitals in Europe, and Sheba Medical Center, a world-renowned leading innovation hospital in Israel with a specialty in maternity care.

The combined public company will be led by Nuvo’s Chief Executive Officer, Kelly Londy. Mrs. Londy is a seasoned healthcare professional with a track record of commercialization success in the field of FDA-approved medical devices. She began her career at University of Michigan Hospitals, eventually moving to GE’s medical systems and healthcare divisions, and Philips Healthcare North America, where she was a leader in U.S. sales and marketing. Mrs. Londy has held C-suite leadership positions as Chief Operating Officer at Accuray Inc. and several early-stage medical device companies, including Chief Executive Officer at Innoblative Designs Inc. and Lumicell, Inc.

Management Commentary

Mrs. Londy stated, “Pregnancy care is seeing concerning trends in health outcomes, access to care, and cost of care delivery. We believe women’s health and pregnancy care has seen far too little investment and innovation to address these concerning trends. Healthcare providers, patients and their loved ones deserve better and Nuvo has the potential to be a ‘game-changer’ in pregnancy journeys around the world. The Nuvo – LAMF partnership allows us to accelerate our plans to grow our solution and the impact we are having at a time when pregnant people and clinicians need it the most.”

Simon Horsman, LAMF’s Chief Executive Officer, said: “LAMF is thrilled to have entered into this transaction with Nuvo following an extensive period of discussions with Nuvo’s management team and shareholders. In this exciting partnership with Nuvo, we look forward to pursuing Nuvo’s mandate of significantly improving prenatal care through at-home, remote monitoring of pregnancy as well as scaling the business globally. We expect to bring value to the combined public company through our extensive relationships in media, entertainment and healthcare.”

In addition to Mr. Horsman and Jeffery Soros, LAMF’s Chairman, LAMF’s sponsor team includes affiliates of NYC-based asset manager 10X Capital.
