“This funding round will enable Babylon to accelerate its growth and cement the company’s position as a true global leader in digital health. Considering the massive size of the market, I believe Babylon is only in the very beginning of its journey and that there is tremendous upside from this new mark over the next couple of years. We look forward to continuing to support Babylon and its team over the exciting years to come.”
