Koa Health
Scalable mental health solutions
Problem
Mental disorders are among the most common population conditions, and it’s estimated less than 25% of people with a disorder receive any kind of care at all. There are not enough care providers to satisfy the world’s mental health needs.
Investment Rationale
We invested in KOA as a spinoff from Telefonica’s Alpha Health, which counted on very strong financial and R&D support from the company. KOA Health is the digital-first health mental solution with the most clinical evidence supporting its capabilities.
Rather than a well-being app, KOA has developed a set of tools to provide different digital only or clinicians supportive solutions to cover the whole spectrum of mental conditions: From prevention to mild symptoms to clinical treatment including for severe mental illnesses.
We strongly believe the only way to increase access to mental care is by expanding clinicians’ reach with digital clinically validated tools. Oliver Harrison shared our vision and is leading KOA’s team to make it a reality.
