MedTech Acquisition Corporation and Memic Innovative Surgery Ltd. Mutually Agree to Terminate Business Combination
11 March 2022 - 12:11AM
MedTech Acquisition Corporation (Nasdaq: MTAC) (“MedTech”), a
publicly traded special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) focused
on medical technology, and Memic Innovative Surgery Ltd. (“Memic”),
a medical device company dedicated to transforming surgery with its
proprietary surgical robotic technology, today announced that both
companies have mutually agreed to terminate, effective immediately,
their previously announced business combination agreement dated
August 12, 2021 due to market conditions and associated volatility
as a result of recent world events.
“While we are disappointed that our proposed business
combination with Memic will not be consummated, we believe that
Memic’s Hominis system and its innovative technology, as well as
Memic’s highly accomplished management team, will position Memic
for future success,” said Chris Dewey, Chief Executive Officer of
MedTech.
“With the recent adoption of our Hominis system by three leading
U.S. hospitals, we are excited about the ability of the Hominis
system to perform robotic transvaginal techniques that were
previously unfeasible, fulfilling a significant unmet need in
women’s health, with the potential to be applied to a broad range
of indications in the future including general surgery. We are
grateful for the support we have received from the MedTech team,
whose commitment to surgical robotics we share,” said Dvir Cohen,
co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Memic.
