- BioStar Capital and Cue Growth co-lead financing to accelerate pivotal trial readiness and expand the ventricular tachycardia (VT) treatment market
- New board leadership reflects Field's momentum and readiness for pivotal execution
CARDIFF-BY-THE-SEA, Calif., July 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Field Medical, Inc., a clinical-stage company redefining cardiac ablation with next-generation pulsed field ablation (PFA) technology, today announced the close of a $35 million Series B financing round co-led by BioStar Capital and Cue Growth, with participation from existing strategic investors.
The Series B financing will support the initiation of the company's pivotal VERITAS trial, advance the FieldForce Ablation System development, and further expand Field Medical's clinical and regulatory capabilities. The raise was catalyzed in part by strong pilot data presented at the 2025 Heart Rhythm Society meeting. With this round, Field Medical has raised $75 million to date, further solidifying its leadership in PFA innovation for complex arrhythmias.
"Ventricular tachycardia is among the most underpenetrated segments in electrophysiology, yet physicians still lack the tools they need," said Steven Mickelsen, MD, founder and CEO of Field Medical. "What is exciting is how VT is mirroring the early days of the AF market, strong clinical demand unmet by existing technology. We are poised to unlock this opportunity with our next-generation therapy built for speed, precision and real clinical progress, advancing toward pivotal readiness and redefining what is possible in VT care for high-risk patients."
"Field Medical's transformative technology is doing what few companies dare to do – tackling one of the most difficult and under-addressed challenges in cardiology with real innovation and urgency," said Louis Cannon, MD, founder and senior managing director of BioStar Capital. "Their physician-led team brings the right insight, and their FieldForce platform brings the right tools. We're proud to support this next chapter as they move closer to transforming VT care."
"This round reflects the momentum building behind Field Medical, not only from our clinical results, but also from the strength of our business fundamentals," said Oskar Dadason, CFO of Field Medical. "Our strong showing at HRS attracted institutional investor interest and reinforced continued support from existing investors, speaking volumes about the confidence in our technology, strategy, and leadership."

Field Medical Closes Oversubscribed $35 Million Series B to Advance Development of FieldForce™ Pulsed Field Ablation Platform
Korea-Based Food Producer to Launch 'Heung-Bu Duo' Bread Celebrating Famous LAFC Duo Son Heung-Min and Denis Bouanga;
Partnership to Include Domestic Product and Merchandise launches, Plus U.S.-Focused Marketing Campaigns
LOS ANGELES and SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Starting in 2026, fans of Paris Baguette and Los Angeles Football Club (LAFC) will be able to find products inspired by the "Heung-Bu Duo" (Son Heung-Min and Denis Bouanga) at Paris Baguette.
Paris Baguette's partnership with LAFC of Major League Soccer (MLS) marks the first such partnership by a company in Korea's food and foodservice sector with a U.S.-based sports team. The partnership is Paris Baguette's third global sports collaboration, following partnerships with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in 2023-2024 and Tottenham Hotspur of the English Premier League in 2025.
Through this partnership, Paris Baguette will roll out LAFC-themed bakery products and merchandise starting in 2026, along with a variety of customer engagement programs such as Meet & Greet event and ticket giveaway.
"Sports are powerful content that connects fans around the world and enables closer engagement," Jin Soo Hur, Vice Chairman of Paris Baguette, said. "Through our partnership with LAFC, we will offer a variety of activities that allow customers to share joyful moments and special experiences with our bread."
"We are thrilled to partner with Paris Baguette, a global bakery brand loved by consumers in the United States and around the world for its delicious, high-quality offerings," Larry Freedman, LAFC Co-President said. "This partnership will elevate each of our brands as we bring people together through the shared experiences of the beautiful game and wonderful food."
LAFC is a Los Angeles–based club that debuted in 2018 and currently boasts star players such as Son Heung-Min, Denis Bouanga and Hugo Lloris on its roster. With the recent addition of Son, the club has garnered world-wide attention, rapidly expanding its fan base in Korea and internationally.
By combining bakery and sports in a unique way, Paris Baguette continues to expand its touchpoints with global sports fans and customers through activities such as launching club- and player-themed products and merchandise, running customer promotions, and conducting stadium advertising. The brand has gained attention with innovative campaigns, including displaying a Korean-language LED billboard message reading "Hello! Paris Baguette" at PSG home matches and producing videos featuring PSG star players enjoying Paris Baguette bread. These efforts earned the company the "Marketer of the Year Award," selected by the Korea Advertisers Association. Paris Baguette also serves its coffee at Tottenham Hotspur's home stadium.
Paris Baguette continues to expand its global presence, operating approximately 3,400 stores in Korea and around 700 stores across 15 countries in the United States, Europe, and Asia, for a total of more than 4,100 stores worldwide. In North America, including the U.S., the company aims to operate 1,000 stores by 2030 and has recently strengthened its operations by commencing construction on a local baking plant in Texas.
