Why mental health?
Mental health is one of the biggest problems of our time.
The numbers are staggering - 1 of 5 adults will experience symptoms of mental illness and the World Health Organisation expects that by 2030, mental health conditions will be the leading cause of morbidity globally. Depression alone is costing $1T annually and up to 50% of people experiencing mental illness won't get treatment, due to lack of mental health professionals, financial resources, or the associated stigma.
We believe that the mental health sector is at an inflection point. There is colossal gap between demand for mental health solutions and supply of capital available to fund research and care. More research, treatments and platforms are required to meet demand.
The time is now – there is a heightened awakening amongst both user and payors of mental health and with recent advancement in technology and mental health research, we believe the mental health space has become ripe for disruption.
