Medicai, a Romanian health-tech startup, expands in the US

Business Forum
Medicai, a local health-tech startup specializing in cloud-native medical imaging, is expanding its presence in the US market, backed by an investment of approximately €200,000.

The company's expansion into the US began in 2023 and its founders project that this region will account for 50% of its business by the end of 2025. 

Medicai's platform, which connects to imaging equipment like CT and MRI machines, is used by healthcare providers, as well as by US attorneys specializing in personal injury or workers' compensation. 

The startup has 70 customers across Romania, the US, the UK, and India, with most currently located in Romania. However, the US market is growing fastest, with a target of 50 clients by the end of 2025.

Andrei Blaj, Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer of Medicai, said: "We know we can grow significantly because the medical sector is increasingly responsive to technological innovations, and we will take advantage of this trend."

The startup has raised €700,000 in funding to date from several investment funds, including GapMinder.
