GlobeImmune received over $60 million through these collaborations, with its last investment being a $391.73K Venture Round investment on 12 March 2014. These investments reflect the industry's confidence in the potential of GlobeImmune's innovative Tarmogen platform and its ability to address significant medical challenges in the field of biotechnology.
