Clafiya, a Nigerian health-tech startup, has raised a $610,000 pre-seed investment to further its mission to bring healthcare services to disadvantaged communities.

The latest funding came from Norrsken Accelerator, Acquired Wisdom Fund (AWF), Hustle Fund, Voltron Capital, Microtraction, Ajim Capital, HoaQ, Bold Angel Fund, Shivdasani Family, and other visionary angel investors.

With the pre-seed funding, Clafiya plans to Introduce a business platform that allows well-meaning businesses to purchase health plans for their employees to keep their productivity levels high, expanding its reach and partnerships to even more cities in Nigeria and operational partners and hire talents to build an amazing healthcare company that will change the way Nigerians access and receive healthcare.

Clafiya was founded by Jennie Nwokoye and Itoro Inoyo and the startup offers affordable and quality healthcare services to Nigerians. It started from Enugu, South East Nigeria and has since then expanded to other cities in Nigeria such as Lagos and Abuja.

Fixing healthcare in Nigeria, also makes sense commercially, as we have grown our revenue by 15%. In 2018, the Nigerian healthcare market was valued at $15 billion with an expected growth rate of 20% over the next five years.
