Dr Rafaèle Tordjman, MD, PhD, Founder and CEO of Jeito Capital, said: “ReproNovo combines strong innovative potential, a seasoned team, and a clear ambition to address one of the most pressing global challenges of our time: declining birth rates. At Jeito, we are committed to advancing breakthrough innovations with significant value for both patients and society. This investment reflects that commitment. We are proud to support the acceleration of ReproNovo’s clinical development and help unlock its potential to become a future market leader.”

Fertility rates are falling worldwide, with male infertility on the rise—sperm counts have dropped by 50% to 60% over the past 40 years. At the same time, women face serious health risks during fertility treatments.

These trends highlight the urgent need for new reproductive solutions that address the needs of both men and women.

Ksenija Pavletic, Partner and Chief Commercial Officer at Jeito Capital, added: “As approximately one in six people worldwide will face infertility issues, we are proud to support ReproNovo, whose commitment to advancing novel therapies in reproductive health aligns well with our focus on accelerating cutting-edge technologies and the commercialisation of treatments with transformative benefits for patients. We are highly impressed by the ReproNovo team, whose members have a strong track record in this field, having brought a number of compounds successfully through clinical development and onto the market. Their deep understanding of the field will enable them to effectively address critical unmet needs that have a strong impact on society.”

ReproNovo is headquartered in Lausanne, Switzerland, with its main development team based in Copenhagen, Denmark, and an additional site in Barcelona, Spain.

Alongside the funding news, Ksenija Pavletic—Partner and Chief Commercial Officer at Jeito, with 25 years of experience in reproductive medicine and women’s health—will join ReproNovo’s Board of Directors.
