Across the 10 most recent Dubai health care entries, disclosed round sizes cluster in the single-digit millions: $10M (Okadoc, 2022-11-10) is the largest disclosed amount, followed by several $2M–$5M rounds (Udenz $5M on 2023-08-01; STEPPI $2M on 2021-10-12; Smileneo $2M on 2021-04-07; Enhance Fitness $3M on 2021-09-14; Valeo $3M on 2021-06-15). The $10M figure is a clear top-end outlier relative to the rest, which largely sit at $5M or below.
The timing shows a mid-window concentration: three rounds with disclosed amounts fall between 2021-04-07 and 2021-10-12 (Smileneo $2M; Valeo $3M; STEPPI $2M), while the most recent disclosed round is Better at $550K on 2024-12-10. Stage classifications are mixed, with 3 of 10 rows marked “undisclosed” and 3 of 10 rows using “Series Unknown,” spanning 2025-05-08 (Endocare) back to 2021-04-07 (Smileneo). All entries are listed in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, indicating no geographic spread within the city field.

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in this Dubai health care set, and is it materially above the rest?
Okadoc’s $10M round (2022-11-10) is the largest disclosed amount in the 10-row view, and it sits well above the next-highest disclosed figure of $5M (Udenz, 2023-08-01), with most other disclosed rounds concentrated at $3M or below (Enhance Fitness $3M on 2021-09-14; Valeo $3M on 2021-06-15; STEPPI and Smileneo at $2M in 2021).
How many rounds in this list have undisclosed vs. unknown amounts, and where do those labels show up over time?
6 of 10 rows do not provide a disclosed dollar amount: 3 are labeled “undisclosed” (Endocare on 2025-05-08; Hoopla on 2024-06-10; Vezeeta on 2022-10-11) and 3 use “Series Unknown” (Endocare is “Series Unknown” as well, plus Hoopla 2024-06-10 and Vezeeta 2022-10-11). Those non-disclosed entries appear across the full displayed range from 2021-04-07 through 2025-05-08.
Is there a concentration of disclosed rounds within a particular date window?
Yes, the disclosed $2M–$3M rounds cluster in 2021: Smileneo closes $2M on 2021-04-07, Valeo closes $3M on 2021-06-15, and STEPPI closes $2M on 2021-10-12. Outside that cluster, the other disclosed sizes are $3M–$5M in 2021–2023 (Enhance Fitness $3M on 2021-09-14; Udenz $5M on 2023-08-01) and $10M on 2022-11-10.
What stage mix appears to dominate among entries with disclosed amounts?
Among disclosed rounds, the largest set of entries is concentrated in early-stage labels: $2M seed-stage capital shows up with Smileneo (Seed, 2021-04-07 $2M) and $550K appears at Pre-Seed (Better, 2024-12-10). Growth-stage disclosed rounds exist as well (Okadoc is Series B at $10M on 2022-11-10; Udenz is Series A at $5M on 2023-08-01), but the disclosed entries are smaller more frequently than they are large.
Which recent entries (by date) are most relevant for near-term pipeline conversations given their disclosed sizes?
Within the most recent dates, Better’s $550K round (2024-12-10) is the only disclosed amount in 2024 in the list, and Endocare (2025-05-08) is the most recent entry but remains undisclosed. The next disclosed post-2024-12-10 item is Udenz at $5M on 2023-08-01, making disclosed near-term deal sizes look smaller versus the peak $10M disclosed round in 2022.
