CoMind, a UK startup founded by James Dacombe (age 25, founded at 17), has secured $102.5m total funding, including a $60m Series A led by Plural with backing from Angelini Ventures, LocalGlobe, Octopus Ventures, Crane, Backed VC, and Entrepreneurs First. The company claims a breakthrough in non-invasive brain monitoring that measures core indicators like cerebral blood flow without drilling into the skull—addressing current methods that are either invasive with a 15% complication rate or inaccurate. In the US, about 3 million TBI patients annually are affected, with only 5% receiving intracranial pressure tests; CoMind targets FDA approval within two years to access the ICU market and will expand with an AI platform to turn sensor data into predictive insights, enabling earlier complication detection and personalised treatment. Investors describe CoMind as a pioneering photonics company with potential for global impact and a safer, more affordable alternative to existing solutions.
