A digital health report from Rock Health showed that women-led companies and geographic diversity continued to build in the third quarter. In the three months through September 30, of the 84 companies that raised $1.2 billion, 16 percent were led by women.
Women-led companies that received investment in the third quarter reflect a wide range of digital health subsectors. Although women’s health is among them, it is one of several. Other include care coordination with Chicago-based ExplORer Surgical, cofounded and led by CEO Jennifer Fried. The business raised $3 million to advance its operating room care coordination and analytics business.
