Lightspeed Venture Partners News

Neko Health, a body-scanning startup co-founded by Spotify's Daniel Ek, has raised $260 million in a Series B funding round led by Lightspeed Venture Partners. The round values the company at $1.8 billion. Neko Health aims to expand its preventative healthcare services, focusing on AI-based full-body scans, into new markets such as the U.S. The company plans to use the funds to continue developing its diagnostics, potentially through acquisitions, and to open more clinics to meet growing demand. Neko Health has already scanned and evaluated 10,000 patients in its clinics in Stockholm and London, with a waitlist that has grown to over 100,000 people.
