The recent funding round, which includes investments from HealthX Ventures, Nina Capital, Ikigai Growth Partners, 46 Ventures, The Venture Center, High Street Equity Partners, and Suncoast Ventures, along with angel investors, will enable Sober Sidekick to scale operations and deepen its engagement with the healthcare community.
