Shifting healthcare systems from reactive to proactive care is critical – the best outcomes occur when people can take action early, before a condition becomes a diagnosis. That’s why we are excited to announce that we have led a $2.5m pre-seed round for NiaHealth and are thrilled that they are coming out of stealth and we can share what they have been building. 

NiaHealth is emerging as a major player in Canada’s healthspan and longevity space. They blend advanced diagnostics, ML-driven insights, and 1:1 clinician support. NiaHealth complements, not replaces, Canada’s public healthcare system. Think of it this way. While your family doctor focuses on diagnosing and treating disease today, NiaHealth looks decades ahead to empower people to identify risks early and make lifestyle changes that can prevent disease entirely. 

We backed Nia because we saw they were starting with a mission, not a flashy idea. CEO Sameer Dhar, a serial health tech entrepreneur, built NiaHealth after cutting his own diabetes risk by 300% through proactive testing. 

Early momentum during stealth mode has been nothing short of impressive. 90% of Nia users found a preventative health issue they could act on, from pre-diabetes to Vitamin D deficiency and reduced kidney function. The Nia experience goes beyond lab results and chatbots – users get clinician-reviewed digital reports and personalized action plans via secure messaging.

NiaHealth is currently available in ON, BC, AB, and MB with plans for national and international expansion. They plan to roll out a suite of new features by the end of year to further personalize and deepen the user experience. We believe Nia’s approach is exactly what Canadians need more of: proactive, preventative, personalized care that fits real lives. And we’re so proud to be a part of this important journey.
