Karlsruhe-based healthtech raises capital for the first time

Heyvie wants to make neurocentric training accessible to the masses. The founders have now secured support for this, including from APX.

Healthtech Heyvie has raised 400,000 euros in its first round of financing. The Karlsruhe-based company won over venture capitalists Calm/Storm Ventures and APX. Several business angels also participated, as the start-up announced.

Heyvie aims to make neurocentric training accessible to the masses. This training is a method designed to combat mental and physical ailments of the brain. Previously, this was only possible with a small number of certified trainers, but with the help of Heyvie's app, neurocentric training should now be available to everyone, according to the company.

Hady Daboul and Marius Krämer are behind the company. Daboul, who trained as a doctor, acts as Chief Science Officer and developed the algorithm behind the app. Krämer is responsible for the business side and has already gained experience in other start-ups.

Daboul and Krämer have ten employees just a few months after founding the company and are now planning the beta launch of their program soon.
