STEPPI, the UAE-based wellness platform, raised $1.8 million in its latest funding round and has partnered with London-based private business club Embody Fitness.
Launched in 2020, the wellness platform creates a corporate health experience through a mix of activities and challenges.
“Corporate wellness is a rapidly evolving field and our partnership with Embody Fitness now gives us access to their industry-leading team of fitness coaches, nutritionists, and wellness experts,” Joe Franklin, co-founder of STEPPI, said.
The fitness industry in MENA reached a quarterly funding record in the third quarter of 2021, constituting a 70 percent quarter-on-quarter growth.
The partnership and funding will allow the company, Franklin said, to expand its wellness services offering, as well as “individual wellness journeys through our multi-channel platform.”
