Oliva secures £4.3m in funding led by Molten Ventures to expand its mental health platform
The investment round was led by Molten Ventures with backing from Stride VC and Alumni Ventures.
Oliva is a healthtech platform that provides specialist mental health and wellbeing support for employees. It partners with employers to improve workplace culture and deliver tailored care.
Oliva has secured £4.3m in new funding to expand its therapist network and develop its care model. The investment was led by Molten Ventures, with participation from existing backer Stride VC and new investor Alumni Ventures, alongside angel investor Kieran Flanagan.
The raise follows a period of rapid growth for the platform, which doubled its team size and increased revenues significantly over the past year. The capital will support the company as it launches into new markets and languages, develops new product features, and integrates artificial intelligence into its care journeys.
From the founder
"From the very beginning, our vision for Oliva has been clear: to be Europe’s most comprehensive and clinically validated workplace mental health platform. Companies working with Oliva get more than a platform – they get a full-scale partnership for their employee mental health strategy. And for employees – they don’t get short changed by a system powered by bots. We offer evidence-led, human-centric support strategies that are tailored to their individual needs."

Investor perspective

They are world-class repeat entrepreneurs, and they have the experience and capabilities to tackle challenges around mental health and provide a method to help many people around the world."
