LocumBase, a South Africa-based independent online medical booking platform, secured undisclosed funding round from Grindstone Ventures to accelerate its growth plans.
With the money received, the healthtech firm will further strengthen its service offering while benefiting the local industry as they prepare for international development and growth.
“As a practice owner or primary practitioner, you need to rest and revive in order to provide the very best care to your patients. You need a simple, seamless way to manage your temporary team and find the best new locums to grow your business,” Zulé Vuuren, Founder, and CEO of LocumBase, said
“We see more and more interest from untapped industries where our core software can have a positive impact on workforce efficiency and employment opportunities, from day one implementation,” she noted.
LocumBase completed the Grindstone Accelerator program in 2020/2021 and celebrated its graduation as Cohort Winner for exhibiting substantial growth and achievements during the program.
