One in five workdays is lost to poor mental health, yet companies continue pouring billions into wellness programs that fail to move the needle.
Kyan Health announces $16.7M in funding to transform this broken model, combining AI-powered preventive care with organizational insights that help companies treat employee wellbeing as a strategic, measurable investment rather than a box-ticking exercise.
The funding comprises a previously unannounced $4M seed round led by Amplo VC and a $12.7M Series A led by Swisscom Ventures, with participation from GreyMatter Capital, naturalX Health Ventures, Founderful, Joyance Partners and several angel investors. This brings Kyan’s total funding to $18.4M as it expands its platform globally.

Kyan Health was co-founded by Vlad Gheorghiu, Konstantin Struck, and Ignacio Leonhardt. Vlad a former leader of McKinsey’s global mental health program, experienced firsthand the challenges of managing mental health in high-pressure environments.
Together with Konstantin, a former Associate Partner at McKinsey & Company, and Ignacio, a serial entrepreneur and co-founder of Handy.com, they launched Kyan Health with a mission to provide both individualized care and systemic solutions that address organizational needs.
Vlad Gheorghiu, CEO and Co-Founder of Kyan Health said, "While companies globally spend over $94 billion annually on workplace wellbeing initiatives, most programs remain stuck in a reactive model of crisis management. Mental health isn’t a fluffy perk—it’s the backbone of a thriving workforce, When I struggled personally, and later when I led a global mental health program, I saw firsthand how inadequate the tools were to address real challenges. This investment is about changing that—creating the tools I wish had existed, making mental health measurable, and giving organizations the power to act before crises hit.”
