Press release 18 February 2026

The British Business Bank has announced its £2.3m commitment through its Regional Angels Programme Co-Invest to Evaro, an NHS-licensed digital healthcare platform.

Evaro, which has recently announced a $25m Series A funding round, is expected to accelerate the company’s healthcare-as-a-service model in three core areas: consumer brands seeking new revenue streams, healthcare organisations expanding digital capacity, and employers offering health benefits to their workforces.

Mark Barry, Senior Investment Director at British Business Bank, said:

We first invested in Evaro through an angel partner at the seed stage and we’re delighted to double down at the series A through our early-stage direct strategy. The business has grown at speed, whilst also being incredibly capital efficient. They are capitalising on the digitisation and future of health being platform based and Evaro is becoming a leader in this growing market.
