Virohan, an edtech start-up that caters to healthcare professionals has raised $7 million in a pre-series B1 round led by Blume Ventures. The round also saw participation from Bharat Inclusion Seed Fund, Rebright Partners and Lesing Artha Limited.

With the latest financial development, the total capital raised by the edtech start-up has reportedly reached $11 million.

Founded in 2018 by Kunaal Dudeja, Nalin Saluja and Archit Jayaswal, the platform aims to train students in Allied Healthcare Programs (AHP). AHPs are technicians in the healthcare industry who work as Phlebotomists, Medical Laboratory Technicians, and Operating Theatre Technicians, among others.

With the new funds, Virohan aims to expand to 200+ new campuses across India and train more than 7000 students. The start-up is also planning to develop and launch new training programs, scale its omnichannel training platform infrastructure and content in vernacular languages along with developing new features to further increase learning outcomes for students.

As per the media report, the funding will also help the start-up to expand to Japanese markets with support from its existing investors' ALES, and Rebright Partners.

This investment is a testament to our product-market fit, scalability, impact and profitability of the business model. In the next 18 months Virohan will deepen its relationship with its stakeholders (Students, Universities/Colleges & Medical institutions), train over 10,000 students, and establish an international presence to cater to $100B+ global opportunity,” said Kunaal Dudeja, co-founder and chief executive officer (CEO), Virohan.

Virohan works with partners such as Fortis Escorts, 1MG, Dr. Lal Path Labs, Sarvodaya Healthcare and Healthian among others.
