Hemi Health Secures €4M for Migraine Care
Hemi Health, a female-led healthtech startup based in Denmark, has secured €4 million in funding. The company will use the capital to expand its migraine and concussion care platform internationally. The investment highlights a growing focus on specialized, technology-enabled women's health solutions within the venture capital community.
- The €4 million seed funding round was led by Denmark's Export and Investment Fund (EIFO) and Swiss Health Ventures, with participation from existing investors Sondo Capital, Alliance Venture Capital, and Crowberry Capital. - Founded in 2023, Hemi Health has already provided care to over 1,000 individuals suffering from migraines, headaches, and concussions through its physical clinics in Denmark and its digital platform. - The company's international expansion will begin with the Netherlands, where it plans to establish a clinic and align with insurance-driven healthcare systems. - A significant portion of the new capital will be used to further develop Hemi Health's proprietary digital platform, with a focus on leveraging AI to create structured and measurable care programs. - The company was co-founded by Benedicte Grytte Dahl, Anna Løfqvist, Sune K-Holm Nielsen, and Mathias Iversen. Løfqvist has stated that her personal experience with migraines was a driving force behind creating a more streamlined and effective care pathway. - Hemi Health's platform combines a digital app for video consultations and symptom tracking with physical clinics, offering a multidisciplinary treatment model for complex neurological conditions, including whiplash. - The investment in Hemi Health aligns with a positive trend in women's health technology; while overall venture funding in health tech saw a decline, investment in women's health-focused companies has shown growth. - The global market for women's health technology is projected to grow to US$60 billion by 2027, yet the sector currently receives a disproportionately small percentage of total health tech funding.
