The 10 Most Funded Digital Health Companies, Ever

Every year, billions of venture dollars are poured into U.S. digital health startups with the hopes of rich returns. These companies promise to “disrupt”, “redefine”, and “transform” healthcare as we know it. Some go on to do just that, while others have failed to live up to their hype.

What do these companies have in common?

  • Capital outcomes: 30% are active private companies, 50% are publicly traded, and 20% have shut down. None have been acquired—likely because valuations this high leave few acquirers.

  • Longevity: The average company age is 12 years, with a median of 10 years.

  • Leadership: 100% are run by male CEOs, which is not a surprise as we know women face systemic barriers when fundraising.

  • Geography: Four are in Silicon Valley, three in New York, one in Boston/Cambridge, one in Chicago, and one in Columbus.

  • Business models: From D2C (Ro, Oura, Peloton, Jawbone) to B2B2C (Lyra, Hinge, Oscar) to B2B (Tempus, Devoted).
