Mubadala backs Proximie’s aim to ‘digitise operating rooms,’ as healthtech investments continue to grow – Arabian Business

Abu Dhabi’s wealth fund Mubadala has become a new investor in global health technology platform Proximie, which has helped boost hospitals’ digital capabilities within operating rooms.

The UK-based healthtech company recently closed its Series C funding round, raising around $80 million. The financing was led by Advent Life Sciences, with new investors joining in, including Mubadala and SoftBank Vision Fund 2.

Launched in 2016, Proximie provides a platform for surgeons to virtually “scrub in” to any operating room in the world. The company said it has since supported over 13,000 surgeries in around 100 countries.
