MISSISSIPPI, UNITED STATES, June,2022- HB Biotech announces equity crowdfunding to launch a new medical product that changes how fluid is removed from the body – bypassing the kidneys.

HB Biotechnologies Corporation is commercializing Fluid Lock System — a low-risk tool to help heart failure and chronic kidney disease patients manage excess fluid. Beyond dialysis.

Currently HB Biotech is raising capital to manufacture the commercial product and obtain medical device regulatory clearance to market and sell Fluid Lock System in the United States, Canada, Japan, UK, and the European Economic Area.

The Company recently launched an equity crowdfunding raise on Wefunder (https://wefunder.com/fluidlock) to broaden the scope of who can invest in this enterprise. Now, anyone — from nearly anywhere — can be part of the solution to bring this life-changing, market-altering medical device to the people who need it — and experience the benefits of company ownership.

“We’re on a mission to get this done, and equity crowdfunding gives us an opportunity to raise capital from the public, without necessarily having to rely on only venture capital as a source of funding,” says (female) founder of HB Biotech, Dani Berger.

“With a dismal 2% of US venture capital going to female founders in 2021, equity crowdfunding opens the door to a community-based approach toward investors and gives us the ability to grow a company that is for the people and by the people. It’s time to make this significant advancement in cardio renal specialty care readily available. We just need serious, like-minded investor partners to help us push this over the finish line.”

Those interested in creating a reality beyond dialysis that provides much-needed relief from fluid overload to millions of people can join HB Biotech’s equity crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder: https://wefunder.com/fluidlock

About Fluid Lock System:
Fluid Lock System is a prescription medical device. The product is comprised of an encapsulated superabsorbent polymer that is administered orally and is intended as a tool to help manage fluid for heart failure and chronic kidney disease patients.

Clinical studies have shown that use of the product results in improvements in measures of fluid overload including body weight, blood pressure, ability to breathe, endurance, heart failure classification, and other quality of life measures.

Fluid Lock System brings more ammunition to help kidney patients fight back — and to fight back across the entire disease spectrum — as a first-in-line approach to help slow disease progression, and as a later stage tool to help manage fluid overload in between dialysis treatments as the disease worsens.
