Company mission
To leverage mobile technology to deliver non-judgemental medical expertise and the latest therapies.
Our take
Obesity remains a pervasive health challenge worldwide, contributing to a range of chronic diseases. Traditionally addressed as a lifestyle issue with simplistic solutions like diet and exercise, Beyondbmi recognises the complexity of obesity as a chronic disease and seeks to revolutionise its treatment.
The company has developed a medically-led digital obesity clinic that goes beyond conventional approaches. Shifting away from the "eat less, move more" paradigm, Beyondbmi's innovative weight loss programme combines personalised medical interventions, community support, and advanced technology. By targeting neurohormonal pathways, the company aims to bring about a profound impact on individuals struggling with obesity, allowing them to lead healthier lives.
The success of Beyondbmi is underscored by funding from various investors that will be instrumental in advancing the development of its mobile app and expanding the team to enhance service offerings. As the clinic has already demonstrated impressive month-on-month growth and tangible results - with an average weight loss of 10% after six months - the additional funding positions Beyondbmi for further innovation and growth.
