Headspace
Virgin Pulse's employer, health plan and health system clients will have access to the full suite of Headspace offerings via its AI-enabled Homebase for Health platform.
Leslie Witt, Headspace Health's chief product and design officer, explains how the company's acquisitions are augmenting its mental health offerings and capabilities.
This marks Headspace Health's second acquisition this year. In January, it announced the purchase of Sayana, which offers mental wellness and sleep apps.
Headspace said the deal will improve its ability to personalize users' experiences.
Headspace Health is combining Ginger and Headspace for Work into a single offering for employers.
Ginger’s CEO Russell Glass will take over as CEO of Headspace Health, and Headspace CEO CeCe Morken will continue to serve as Headspace CEO and president of the combined company.
Also: Welldoc adds three new members to its executive team, and Uber Health loses its leader.
Higher session numbers among the top 15 mental wellness apps were in line with steady monthly increases over the past three years.
This brings the round's total equity raise to $100.7 million.
