Spotify Boss’s Health Startup Hits Big

Tech giants dive into health tech, scanning for better futures.

Neko Health, founded by Daniel Ek of Spotify and Hjalmar Nilsonne, has raised a hefty $700 million in its Series C funding round. The startup offers body-scanning technology combined with blood tests to assess individual health, now including detailed body composition analysis for fitness enthusiasts.


With over 100,000 scans conducted and more than 350,000 people on the waiting list or booked in, Neko Health is expanding into New York. Tech luminaries like Calm founder Alex Tew have already benefitted from its services, finding hidden health issues early.


In a similar vein, Midjourney, known for AI-generated art and chatbots, plans to integrate body scanning with spa experiences in San Francisco. Other investors include Atomico, General Catalyst, Lakestar, and Liberty City Ventures.


As tech giants increasingly turn their attention towards health solutions, the future of wellness might just be a scan away. But will we embrace or fear these new technologies?
