INBRAIN Neuroelectronics
INBRAIN Neuroelectronics is a Barcelona-based clinical-stage neurotech company developing graphene-based, AI-powered brain-computer interface (BCI) therapeutics to decode and modulate neural activity for treating neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease and brain tumors. Spun off from ICN2 in 2019, it holds FDA Breakthrough Device Designation and performed the world's first human graphene BCI procedure in 2024. It has raised over $80M to date, most recently a $50M Series B led by imec.xpand, and has a strategic partnership with Merck KGaA.
