Cashia's venture has $23M initial capital raise

Joe Cashia's new women's health venture launched with a cool $23 million in the bank. According to a document filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 10 — two days after NashvillePost.com first reported on Vivere Health — the company recently completed the equity offering in chunks of $100,000 or more. The filing pegs the company's principal place of business in downtown Philadelphia, at the office of venture capital backer LLR Partners.
