Intuitive Investments Group plc (AIM: IIG) ("IIG" or the "Company"), a closed-end investment company focussed on the life sciences sector, announces an investment of £500,000 to acquire 909 new ordinary shares in The Electrospinning Company Limited ("TECL"), representing a 4.4 per cent. interest in TECL's enlarged share capital, as part of a £4.5 million fundraising round.

TECL was established in 2010 as a spin-out by the UK Science and Technology Research Council (STFC). TECL has a technology platform built around the process of electrospinning, a technique for production of micro- and nano-fibre biomaterials from a variety of natural and synthetic polymers, and a suite of post-processing technologies to convert the biomaterials into medical device components. The core business is the sale of product development and manufacturing services to medical device companies. TECL is also using its know-how to develop proprietary materials for targeted out-licensing opportunities, aiming to capture more of the end-market value created by its innovations and expertise. Further information on TECL can be found on the company's website https://www.electrospinning.co.uk/.

TECL, per the company's unaudited management accounts in the nine months to 31 March 2021, achieved revenues of £879,703, a loss after tax of £755,526 and, as at 31 March 2021, had net assets of £1,640,457.
