Meela is a research-based matching platform connects people with their best-fit therapists, making the journey to better mental wellbeing feel safe and effective. With the largest network of licensed psychologists and psychotherapists in Sweden and the London area, Meela has helped over 90,000 people find their perfect therapeutic match, and 9 out of 10 say they got a perfect match.

Meela welcomes everyone, wherever theyre at in life and whatever journey theyre facing. Sometimes we all need help – and thats a good thing.

Women’s health data is scattered, incomplete, and often misused. This limits medical research, slows innovation, and prevents AI from addressing women’s unique healthcare needs. Neblina is changing that by providing a secure, ethical platform for health data aggregation and insights.

Women are underrepresented in clinical trials across almost every disease area, leading to higher side effect rates and delayed discoveries, not because women don’t want to participate, but because the system wasn’t built with them in mind. Our goal is simple yet profound: ensure that clinical research truly reflects the diverse population it aims to serve. With half the population inadequately represented, its time for a change. Our app connects women with clinical trials that match their health needs and life realities, while helping research teams recruit faster and more inclusively. Every match closes the gender health gap and builds the evidence base future treatments depend on. If youre looking to be part of a groundbreaking revolution in healthtech, one thats not only innovative but also highly impactful, TrialMe aims to create that opportunity. Together, we can make clinical trials smarter, more inclusive, and ultimately more successful. Better data starts with women. Ready to disrupt? We are. Join the movement.
