Exciting news! MoldCo is now live and available in California. Our clinician-led digital health platform standardizes mold detox as routine preventive care rising to meet the growing, often hidden health risks mold poses. A recent LA Times article perfectly captures the challenge: modern, energy-efficient homes can unintentionally trap moisture, creating an ideal environment for mold growth that affects both home durability and occupant health. At MoldCo, we combine advanced lab testing and personalized therapies to detect and prevent mold-related illness before it starts. Prevention is better than remediation. Californians now have a trusted partner in MoldCo to help protect their homes and health. Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/gxdkjyf5

Plural exists to invest in startups solving the hardest problems out there, and one of those is how to look after our sick and elderly as populations age, rates of chronic disease rise and the cost of global healthcare grows each year. That’s why we’re doubling down and leading a $20m Series A for Teton, which is building world-class technology for a sector that has seen barely any disruption, even in the face of a growing labour shortage. Teton’s technology automates routine checks on wards, combining specialised cameras with computer vision AI models that continuously monitor patients around the clock and alert nurses when someone needs attention. This system reduces menial work, allowing healthcare workers to spend more time on what they are best at: the human job of attending to patients in need of help, leading to happier staff who are less likely to experience burnout. The technology also shifts care from reactive to preventative, meaning better health outcomes for patients and residents. As an example, implementing Teton reduces falls - the leading cause of injury-related death in adults aged 65 or over - by 82%. The end result is a product that replaces one-off patient spot checks with more detailed ongoing assessment, improves patient outcomes and reduces resource for healthcare providers. This means that in a sector with a serious labour shortage, providers can safely look after people with a smaller number of nurses. For patients, that has the benefit of lowering the overall cost to access the very best care. Co-founders Mikkel Wad Thorsen and Esben Thorius spent more than 100 nights in hospitals to see how healthcare professionals can be helped best by technology, and the value they’re creating speaks for itself: Teton is now live in five countries across 35 care providers.
