The capabilities of Phillips-Medisize align effectively with Credence's product portfolio, which fills important needs in the market, and we look forward to accelerating the delivery of their innovative injection system to market."

John Merhige, Credence's Chief Commercial Officer, stated, "With the previously announced $39.9 million funding, including investments from Molex Ventures and Novartis, we are able to take the important next steps toward putting our technology in the hands of users and providing critical safety and usability enhancements."
