The seed round was led by Heal Capital to support platform development and expand community-based care pathways.
"For a long time, healthcare was rooted in the community. This brought so many benefits to both patients and practitioners, but in recent decades it’s become completely cost-ineffective to deliver it. Meanwhile, secondary care is becoming increasingly bottlenecked, with waiting lists at an all-time high and discharge delays keeping patients in hospital longer than they need. Our mission with Heim Health is to build the digital infrastructure needed to change this; revitalising community-based care and moving more healthcare from the hospital into the home through scalable modes of delivery."
SFC Capital has backed the Liverpool startup with pre-seed capital to support its employee mental health platform.
"Our expert team of counsellors, data scientists and mental health trainers are on a mission to support better minds at work. The MindClass platform offers a range of courses accredited by the Royal Society for Public Health, ensuring that organisations can provide their employees with high-quality, reliable training. Plus on demand counsellors accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)."
The pre-seed round was led by Triple Point Ventures to roll out autism assessment services.
"The current waiting times for autism assessments are very disappointing, with most families facing years of uncertainty. Our expert clinicians and engineers have redesigned the care pathway to offer families timely access to high-quality NHS care. This funding allows us to change the lives of many families, and support the NHS to tackle waiting lists."
The seed round was led by Fuel Ventures to support research and development and international expansion.
"I spent 14 years as a medical researcher, and I would spend hundreds of hours copying data from one system to another. The back-office process is completely broken. When you multiply this across the industry the costs for patients and research institutions are astronomical."
"The success of any surgery depends not only on what happens inside the operating theatre but also on having a smooth-running operation behind the scenes. At Scalpel AI, we work with leading medical device companies and healthcare organisations to transform their logistical supply chain and reduce costs by millions of dollars. Together, we are making surgery safer for patients while paving the way for personalised surgery, which we believe is the future of healthcare."
