In just half a year, Europe’s 50 largest digital health companies have already raised €300m more than the whole of 2019, at upwards of €1.3bn. The average funding round has also more than doubled since 2019 – and grown sixfold since 2018.

HBI looked at funding and valuation data from Europe’s 50 largest digital health start-ups in the telehealth, acute care telemonitoring, digital therapeutics, symptom checker, booking platform, mental health and health insurance subsectors.

Our special report looks at the all-time high valuations in the market to understand key KPIs in the valuation process. It also looks at M&A prospects for the sector as those valuations push out most private equity and operators from any sales processes.
