Redesign Health, a New York-based health-focused venture firm and startup studio, is currently in the midst of a fundraising effort to secure a substantial amount of funding. The company is seeking to raise $250 million, which follows previous successful fundraising efforts, including a $250 million raise in March 2021 and a $65 million Series C funding round in September 2022.
Redesign Health has developed and launched over 65 healthtech companies since its establishment in 2018. Its unique model combines aspects of a venture capital firm with a startup incubator, resulting in successful ventures such as home health provider MedArrive and weight-loss startup Calibrate. The company’s portfolio includes well-funded companies that have faced difficulties in securing additional funding. Calibrate, for example, encountered issues last year with cash burn and customer complaints related to access to weight-loss drugs. Despite these challenges, Redesign Health remains committed to supporting its existing portfolio companies moving forward.
Investors in Redesign Health include General Catalyst, CVS Health Ventures, and UPMC Enterprises. However, the fundraising landscape for VC firms has evolved significantly since Redesign’s previous fundraising efforts. Some investors have experienced challenges meeting targets, leading to workforce reductions and a pause in new investments. With this background information, it becomes clear that Redesign’s current fundraising efforts are more challenging than those of the past.
Despite recent challenges, Redesign Health is focused on navigating the evolving fundraising landscape and continuing to support its portfolio companies. Its post-money valuation reached $1.7 billion following a series of funding rounds and workforce adjustments. As the company continues to grow and innovate within the healthtech industry, it will be interesting to see how it utilizes the funds it raises from this latest effort.
