HD LifeSciences LLC, a developer of 3D printed spinal interbody fusion implants, announced that it is changing the company's name to NanoHive Medical LLC. The renaming is part of broader initiatives that include the recent building of a new executive leadership team and the current growth capital raise. Both initiatives aim to drive product development and commercial growth for the innovative Hive portfolio of 3D printed interbody products.
 
Patrick O'Donnell, president and CEO of NanoHive Medical, commented, “The launching of the new company name coincides with activity to scale the company in preparation for rapid growth. Additionally, management believes that 'NanoHive Medical' better communicates the distinctive nature of our proprietary technology and product portfolio."
 
The company will launch the Hive Standalone ALIF System, a stand-alone anterior lumbar interbody fusion implant, at next week's North American Spine Society meeting and plans to launch multiple new implant systems over the next three years, based on the Hive Soft Titanium lattice platform.
 
NanoHive Medical, LLC (previously HD LifeSciences) is a pioneer and innovator in 3D printed spinal interbody fusion implants and instrumentation. The company’s proprietary, biomimetic Soft Titanium technology clearly distinguishes their products in the $1.9 billion spinal interbody fusion device market. The Hive portfolio of interbody fusion devices provide surgeons and their patients biomechanical elastic modulus properties comparable to PEEK, clear and precise diagnostic imaging capability, osteoblastic cell attraction and integration—all features that lead to consistently strong fusion constructs and efficacious clinical experiences.
 
NanoHive Medical is located in Woburn, Mass.
