Digital health company secures $1.5M pre-Series A.
$1.5M Pre-Series AThe company
A digital health platform connecting patients to clinics and diagnostics across two West African markets. Strong usage growth, a payments-enabled model, and a team that had already survived the hardest phase: building in-market.
The challenge
Local capital at this ticket size was scarce, and international investors kept stalling on the same points: currency exposure, governance, and how a cross-border round would actually be structured. Every conversation ended with interest but no cheque.
What GI Network did
The application was assessed with those objections in front of mind. The opportunity was repositioned for investors who already understood emerging market risk rather than those who needed convincing: a family office with African healthcare exposure and two impact investors with hard-currency mandates.
The round was structured through a holding entity familiar to international investors, with governance terms prepared before the first conversation, not negotiated after it.
The outcome
The family office anchored the round. The two impact investors completed it at $1.5M. The structural questions that had killed previous conversations were answered before they were asked.
