Our take
Neko Health is a preventative healthcare technology company dedicated to establishing a healthcare system centred around preventive measures and early detection.
The company's medical scanning technology aims to enhance health data collection by providing a broad and non-invasive approach that is both convenient and affordable for the public. Conducted in just 10 minutes, the scan utilises over 70 sensors to gather 50 million data points, enabling healthcare professionals to detect diseases at their early stages, including skin conditions/cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other metabolic syndromes.
The Swedish brand recently brought its body-scanning suite to London and raised significant funding, signalling a strong future of growth. With this funding, the company is now focused on expanding even further, hoping ti bring its technology to the US once it receives the necessary regulatory approvals. By bringing accessible and efficient preventive healthcare to the forefront, Neko Health seeks to enable individuals to take proactive control of their health and well-being, contributing to a healthier and happier society.
