Wellness Technology State of the Market
It has been an incredible, challenging and opportunity filled 15 months since we published our first Digital Wellness report in November
of 2019. In the past year, the global COVID-19 pandemic has both reinforced and accelerated the popularity of wellness as the world
has coped with lockdowns, work-from-home, and general uneasiness of living in a global pandemic beyond what any prognosticator
could have forecast. As we move into 2021, “Wellness” has become top of mind for most individuals, healthcare payors and providers,
and increasingly enterprises. The growing popularity of technology enabled meditation, fitness, mental health, sleep and more has
facilitated wellness into the broader mainstream in new and fundamental ways. With this new-found access through consumer
channels, employer and even healthcare system programs, and the equally important societal de-stigmatization brought about through
the pandemic, whether you call it Wellness, Wellbeing or Transformative technologies we see the market at a tipping point as
individuals find, trial and ultimately integrate myriad wellbeing modalities with a more integrated view of health and being well. Not
surprisingly, we see incredible investor interest in companies focusing on wellness through technology, or as we labeled it in our
updated report “Wellness Technology.” We have separated the wellness technology market into three pillars:
• Body & Physical Wellness: Food & Nutrition, Fitness, and Personal Care
• Mental & Emotional Wellness: Meditation & Mindfulness, Therapeutics, and Other Mental Wellness Enablement
• Workplace & Life Wellness: Corporate Wellness, Life & Community Wellness, and Physical World Wellness
The increased interest in wellness from investors was apparent when you look at the venture funding activity in 2020. In Body &
Physical Wellness, Strava, a fitness activity tracker platform, raised $110M, and Everlywell, an at-home lab testing kit company, raised
$200M. In Mental and Emotional Wellness Calm, a meditation app, raised an additional $163M this year, and Mindstrong, a neurotech
digital therapeutics company, raised $100M. While in the Workplace & Life Wellness Virta, a diabetes management platform, raised
$158M, and Lyra, an enterprise mental wellness platform, raised a whopping $360M in 2020.
Although accelerated by the global COVID-19 pandemic, the wellness technology market is not a one-time phenomenon. Several other
tailwinds contribute to an upward trend that does not look to be slowing down anytime soon. We expect to see an increased number of
wellness companies funded in 2021 with a record amount of capital invested and M&A activity pick up as more individuals and
enterprises realize wellness is not just a human resources trend but a critical part of our lives.

Key Themes We Are Watching For In 2021
Accelerating Adoption of Wellness Technology
Adoption of Wellness Technology accelerated in 2020 beyond all expectations.
We believe these accelerations are sustainable, shortening adoption cycles that
would normally have taken 3 to 5 years and compressing them into 1 to 2 years
Convergence with Healthcare
The lines between what is defined as a “healthcare” solution and what is
defined as a “wellness” solution continue to erode as companies continue to
broaden offerings and wellness becomes accepted as larger priority in the
traditional healthcare ecosystem
Blurred Lines of B2B and B2C
Numerous Wellness Technology B2C solutions have found significant success and
growth through B2B sales as enterprises have begun to increasingly understand
not only the potential return on investment to employee productivity, but an
increasing level of engagement-based care and concern

• The Wellness Technology industry saw a massive wave of
adoption in 2020 beyond all industry experts and
watchers' expectations
• What was expected to be a 3–5-year time horizon to
move Wellness Technology into the growth stage of the
industry became condensed down into a single year
• COVID-19 helped to propel the growth with Headspace
Chief Science Officer, Megan Jones Bell, stating, ““There
has been a 19-fold increase in people downloading stress-
relieving meditations, with a 14-fold jump in those
intended to relieve anxiety”
• Although, COVID helped to push the industry, there were
numerous other tailwinds that were responsible for the
growth including a broadening use by enterprises and
increasing consumer acceptance of evidenced backed
solutions

Mental & Emotional Wellness: Overview and Trends
Lifting of the Stigma Surrounding Meditation and Mental Health
• Younger generations are more willing to discuss their mental health with others with ~62% of people ages 20 to 37 feeling comfortable
discussing their mental health at work, compared with about 31% of people ages 54 to 72
• COVID-19 drove additional positive tailwinds for mental health startups as remote access was required for patients and more people
struggled with their mental health due to quarantine, work-from-home, and job loss along with an increased willingness to support
mental health by employers
Computerized Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (“CCBT”)
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (“CBT”) is among the most researched and effective approaches used in counseling and psychotherapy
with CCBT utilizing the same principals as CBT but via web, desktop app, or computer app with many utilizing AI
• CCBT helps bridge the mental health gap by providing greater access to patients with 24/7 accessibly and privacy and increasing the
likelihood that more of the nearly 3 out of 4 US adults in need of mental health therapy who do not seek in-person therapy due to
social stigmas or accessibility limitations will seek therapy through a CCBT platform

likely to stay with an employer because of their benefits program(1)

State of the Market Wellness Technology Q4 2020 Wellness Technology State of the Market It has been an incredible, challenging and opportunity filled 15 months since we published our first Digital Wellness report in November of 2019. In the past year, the global COVID-19 pandemic has both reinforced and accelerated the popularity of wellness as the world has coped with lockdowns, work-from-home, and general uneasiness of living in a global pandemic beyond what any prognosticator could have forecast. As we move into 2021, “Wellness” has become top of mind for most individuals, healthcare payors and providers, and increasingly enterprises. The growing popularity of technology enabled meditation, fitness, mental health, sleep and more has facilitated wellness into the broader mainstream in new and fundamental ways. With this new-found access through consumer channels, employer and even healthcare system programs, and the equally important societal de-stigmatization brought about through the pandemic, whether you call it Wellness, Wellbeing or Transformative technologies we see the market at a tipping point as individuals find, trial and ultimately integrate myriad wellbeing modalities with a more integrated view of health and being well. Not surprisingly, we see incredible investor interest in companies focusing on wellness through technology, or as we labeled it in our updated report “Wellness Technology.” We have separated the wellness technology market into three pillars: • Body & Physical Wellness: Food & Nutrition, Fitness, and Personal Care • Mental & Emotional Wellness: Meditation & Mindfulness, Therapeutics, and Other Mental Wellness Enablement • Workplace & Life Wellness: Corporate Wellness, Life & Community Wellness, and Physical World Wellness The increased interest in wellness from investors was apparent when you look at the venture funding activity in 2020. In Body & Physical Wellness, Strava, a fitness activity tracker platform, raised $110M, and Everlywell, an at-home lab testing kit company, raised $200M. In Mental and Emotional Wellness Calm, a meditation app, raised an additional $163M this year, and Mindstrong, a neurotech digital therapeutics company, raised $100M. While in the Workplace & Life Wellness Virta, a diabetes management platform, raised $158M, and Lyra, an enterprise mental wellness platform, raised a whopping $360M in 2020. Although accelerated by the global COVID-19 pandemic, the wellness technology market is not a one-time phenomenon. Several other tailwinds contribute to an upward trend that does not look to be slowing down anytime soon. We expect to see an increased number of wellness companies funded in 2021 with a record amount of capital invested and M&A activity pick up as more individuals and enterprises realize wellness is not just a human resources trend but a critical part of our lives.
