€20 million investment round for OpenUp

Mental health support in Europe means waiting. Weeks, often months, before you see a psychologist. That’s the problem OpenUp set out to solve, and today they are making another big growth step with a new €20 million investment round in which we invest alongside Smartfin.

OpenUp delivers what the healthcare system still can’t: immediate access to support. Through an employer subscription, every employee, from CEO to concierge, gets access within 24 hours to psychologists. No referral, no waitlist, anonymous, available in 35 languages.

Today the platform serves more than 2,000 organisations, from Rabobank and PwC to Decathlon, reaching over 600,000 employees and their families across five European countries. And the need is urgent: almost 30% of workers in the EU, around 60 million people, experience stress, depression, or anxiety symptoms.

The combination of impact and scalability is why we made our first investment a few years ago, and why we’re doubling down now. With this round, OpenUp can accelerate its European expansion and bring accessible mental health support to workers in many more countries.

Congratulations Gijs Coppens and the entire OpenUp team. Sixty million workers across Europe need this. Time to scale!
