Our take

Nowadays, virtual interactions are here to stay, particularly in the healthcare industry. Interestingly, Maple was founded in a move ahead of the curve, when tele-health was only feebly established, offering virtual, round-the-clock doctor’s appointments for physical and mental health patients in Canada.

Maple’s ability to provide this seamless service lies in its strategic partnerships with insurers, employers, hospitals and government agencies, such as Morneau Shepell and GlaxoSmithKline. This has enabled it to build the groundwork for a unified healthcare ecosystem that ultimately serves the user, with the company successfully growning its network of experienced physicians into every Canadian province.

Maple's product has shined in recent years, due in part to rapid global digitization. It has amassed significant funding to sustain expansion, bringing it closer to its goal of a unified, open-source healthcare ecosystem. In 2022, the company acquired virtual care platform Wello, that focusses on employer programs, to bolster its offering, as it also explores a move into proactive virtual care as well as the reactive services it currently supplies.
