Simple Online Healthcare has today been named in a cohort of 25 high-impact technology scaleups which have been welcomed onto Tech Nation’s prestigious Future Fifty programme, the only Glasgow-based company in the 2025 cohort and one of just two headquartered in Scotland.
The Future Fifty programme is the UK’s most prestigious initiative for high-impact tech companies. Former CEO of Starling Bank, Anne Boden, will deliver the keynote address at today’s announcement, taking place at Daylesford Farm in the Cotswolds.
Simple Online Healthcare is joined by 24 other successful companies spanning sectors including AI, aerospace and climatetech, together representing some of the UK’s most dynamic tech businesses, having together generated a combined raise of over £1.4 billion. 92% of the cohort, including Simple Online, are eyeing international expansion. Yet only 28% are based outside London, with Simple Online Healthcare and legaltech scale-up Wordsmith the only two Scottish ventures.
Simple Online Healthcare CEO Addy Mohammed said: “It’s an honour to be included in the Future Fifty cohort for 2025, and a privilege to be among such disruptive and innovative company. It’s a fantastic recognition of the importance that digital healthcare offers to patients across the world and our role in continuing to move the industry forward.”
“We are now in full scale-up mode, investing across geographies, supply chains, technology, and talent. Digital healthcare continues to evolve rapidly, but our focus remains the same: to enhance the patient journey and to always deliver the highest quality of care,” added Mohammed. “My executive team and I look forward to being part of the Future Fifty programme, benefiting from the initiative’s resources and networks, and in the future, supporting future cohorts on their journeys.”
Carolyn Dawson OBE, CEO of Founders Forum Group, said: “The latest Future Fifty cohort is a testament to the UK’s dynamic tech ecosystem, with fast-paced scaleups that are achieving remarkable growth and poised to address some of the most pressing global challenges. By providing these founders with the vital resources, networks, and global exposure necessary to accelerate their growth and amplify their impact, the Future Fifty programme supports their ambitions while reinforcing the UK’s position as a leader in global technology and entrepreneurship.”
