“We are excited to begin our journey as a public company with this additional investment,” said Dr. Ryan Saadi, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson. “We believe Tevogen’s patient-centric approach, which merges a focus on affordability with advanced science, is a blueprint for sustainable success in the current era of healthcare.
