About

CorWave is a French clinical-stage medical device company headquartered in Clichy, near Paris, developing next-generation implantable heart-assist pumps based on a proprietary undulating wave membrane technology. Unlike conventional continuous-flow LVADs (left ventricular assist devices), CorWave's pump mimics physiological pulsatile blood flow, with the goal of reducing complications such as thrombosis and improving quality of life for advanced heart failure patients. Founded in 2012 by startup studio MD Start, CorWave completed the world's first human implant of its LVAS device in 2025 at St Vincent's Health Australia and is advancing toward pivotal clinical trials. The company has raised over 80 million euros in equity from investors including Bpifrance, Sofinnova Partners, Novo Holdings, Exor Ventures, and the EIC Fund, and employs more than 90 people.
