The context · Q3 2026

A closer look at healthcare

Healthcare startups raised $1.8 million across six deals between July and September 2026, the least in a quarter in our records. The largest was Reme-D's $1.45 million pre-Series A in Egypt. For years the sector has taken about one deal in ten across Africa; in the third quarter it was about one in twenty.

The companies have not gone away. Propel records more than 230 healthcare startups, and earlier rounds for names such as mPharma, backed by Growth Investment Partners to expand in Francophone West Africa, show what the sector can raise when the money is there. Any sizeable healthcare round in the fourth quarter would change the picture quickly. Our Q3 report has the full picture.

What does this page cover?

Companies match the recorded Healthcare sector. Country does not imply incorporation, founder nationality or every market served. Counts include the financing types recorded by Propel, including equity, debt and grants. Unknown amounts are not zero. Dates retain their recorded precision. This is not a complete market census.

Listings follow Propel’s current public records. The dated context is editorial background, not a live market total. Secondary share sales are excluded from recorded funding here. Named backers are recorded participants; their inclusion does not identify them as the lead investor.
