Uruguayan healthtech startup Yeda Health raised a $ 300K pre-seed round led by OurCrowd LATAM Labs.
Yeda’s platform uses clinical data to predict how individuals will respond to different treatments for diabetes and obesity. Through an app, users upload meal photos and connect fitness devices to track daily activity. Combined with continuous glucose monitoring, this data enables Yeda to deliver real-time, personalized recommendations to help prevent glucose spikes.
The company will use the funds to accelerate its commercial development in Latin America, starting with Brazil.
“This investment allows us to fast-track our entry into gym chains, which is our next major milestone and something we have been validating over the past few months,” said Fernando Slamovitz, co-founder and CEO of Yeda Health.
Yeda Health is the first startup that OurCrowd LATAM Labs has invested in since its establishment in Uruguay, as part of the Uruguay Innovation Hub.
