First Analysis recently participated in a funding round that will help Bio-Kinetic nearly double its capacity, strengthen its services in areas such as data analytics, and add management depth required to implement its growth plan.

The First Analysis investment team was led by Jim Macdonald. We collaborated on this investment with our frequent co-investor, Argentum Group. CapitalSource Finance LLC provided debt financing.
