Several prominent angel investors from the private equity and healthcare industries also participated in the round, said MiyaHealth in a press statement on Tuesday (Feb 22).

"We see great synergy in coupling our digital healthcare capabilities of artificial intelligence emergency response systems, data-driven hospital operation centres and trusted data infrastructure with MiyaHealth's solutions," said Low Jin Phang, president of digital systems at ST Engineering.
