Prorizon Secures Funding for AI-Driven Health and Sports Tech
Manchester-based startup Prorizon has successfully raised £400,000 in a pre-seed funding round. This investment aims to enhance the company’s platform by incorporating advanced AI technologies, designed to offer personalized and preventative interventions for individuals dealing with both physical and psychological stress. Prorizon’s mission is to significantly improve long-term health and performance while addressing the underlying causes of stress, especially prevalent among young professionals in demanding environments.
The Prorizon application allows users to actively monitor and manage their mental and physical stress levels. The funding round was led by GC Angels and was supported by an Innovate UK Investor Partnership Award, in collaboration with the Department for Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport (DCMS), alongside investments from various angel investors.
In the next year, Prorizon plans to expand its presence within the sports industry, with a particular focus on professional sports teams. Additionally, the company is exploring opportunities within the American college sports market and anticipates generating £200,000 in revenue by the end of 2025.
“Our primary goal is to provide a comprehensive approach to mental and physical health, enabling users to take control of their well-being through solutions that cater to their specific needs,” stated Joly Fengyang Zou, co-founder and CEO of Prorizon. “The funding from GC Angels will enable us to integrate cutting-edge AI technology, further upgrading our platform and offering better solutions to help people manage their health and performance across various sectors, including sports and education.”
