Sukino just topped up its war chest with $31 million in a Series B round led by Bessemer Venture Partners, with Rainmatter also coming on board.
So, what does Sukino do: it plays in post-acute and rehab care, basically helping patients recover after they leave the hospital through structured support outside a typical hospital setup.
The timing makes sense. India accounts for about 10% of global stroke cases every year, and the number is climbing thanks to lifestyle and health factors.
And recovery isn’t a quick pit stop. Many patients need six to eight weeks of rehab, often involving a mix of physical, speech, occupational and psychological therapy.
That’s where Sukino fits in, bridging the gap between hospital discharge and proper recovery care by offering more structured, affordable rehabilitation support so patients can return to fuller, more independent lives.
Sukino has seen 64% year-on-year growth over the past year, with five centres added. It plans to expand to 22 more centres over the next two years.
