Unmind Secures $35M Investment for Workplace Mental Health
In a significant boost for workplace well-being, Unmind, a leading enterprise mental health platform, has announced a fresh infusion of $35 million in new funding. This substantial investment round, led by TELUS Global Ventures, the strategic investment arm of global communications technology giant TELUS, is poised to accelerate Unmind’s mission to revolutionize mental health support within organizations worldwide.
The London, UK-based company, founded by Dr. Nick Taylor, CEO and co-founder, has now raised a total of $82 million to date, with continued backing from existing investors including Project A, Felix Capital, and Sapphire Ventures. This latest capital injection will primarily fuel Unmind’s ambitious expansion into the U.S. market and further enhance its comprehensive, science-backed, and AI-powered platform.
Unmind’s platform offers a multifaceted approach to mental health, integrating therapy, coaching, advanced well-being tools, and expert-curated content. A key feature is Nova, Unmind’s generative AI-powered companion, which provides personalized mental health guidance through targeted questions and practical advice. The platform aims to simplify access to employer-provided mental health solutions, acting as a modern Employee Assistance Program (EAP) that supports over 2.5 million employees globally across major brands like Uber, Samsung, Disney, Standard Chartered, Diageo, and British Airways.
The investment underscores a critical industry trend: the increasing recognition of workplace mental health as a strategic business imperative. In 2025, companies are moving beyond reactive measures, shifting towards proactive, comprehensive mental health strategies that are seen as essential for retention, productivity, and overall organizational health. The demand for integrated mental health tools, including on-demand therapy, coaching, and AI-driven support, is growing, with a significant majority of employees valuing such benefits. AI, in particular, is emerging as a powerful enabler for scaling mental health support, offering personalized and accessible resources that complement, rather than replace, human care.
Terry Doyle, Managing Partner at TELUS Global Ventures, emphasized the strategic alignment of their investment, stating that Unmind’s product-led approach and innovative use of AI and data analytics perfectly position them to meet the escalating demand for comprehensive workplace mental health solutions. This collaboration highlights a broader industry movement where technology and communication companies are increasingly investing in digital health solutions to address societal well-being.
With this new funding, Unmind plans to scale its operations, reach new markets, and strengthen its customer offerings, ultimately striving to build healthier and more productive workplaces across the globe. The company has also strategically appointed Laura Moniz de Aragao as Chief Revenue Officer to oversee its next phase of growth, with a focus on accelerating U.S. expansion and deepening partnerships. As mental health continues to integrate into the core of workplace culture, Unmind’s expanded capabilities promise to empower both individuals and organizations to thrive in an evolving professional landscape.
