Personalized Supplement Company Bioniq Raises $15M In Funds
The health-tech company will use the funding to continue its global disruption of the supplements market.
Bioniq, a health-tech company leveraging blood biomarker data to provide tailor-made supplements, yesterday announced the closing of a $15M Series B funding program. The oversubscribed round was led by Principal Investors HV Capital and Unbound.
The company is now valued at $75M and the fresh influx of funds will be used to further expand its global market share and continued innovation in the dietary supplements sector.
Bioniq entered the UAE in 2021, and has since expanded across the Gulf region. The company has partnered with Abu Dhabi’s Department of Culture and Tourism, along with Metabolic, a digital therapeutics company, and Al Borg Diagnostics, a leading provider of diagnostic services in Saudi Arabia.
“We’ve entered a new era in nutritional supplementation over the last six years, where it’s become clear that one-size-fits-all solutions are simply inefficient,” said Vadim Fedotov, co-founder and CEO of Bioniq. “Everyone’s health journey is unique. Customers need advanced, adaptable products that provide evolving support for personal health goals. Our AI-driven approach and extensive biochemical database allow us to create customized supplements that provide quantifiable results and cater to individuals’ specific needs”.
Over the last decade, Bioniq has developed a huge biochemical database, leveraging blood test data from clients spanning 5 continents. The AI-powered algorithm used by the company assesses each individual’s height, weight, age, lifestyle, and health goals to create tailor-made supplements that optimize health and address micronutrient imbalances.

Bioniq’s supplements are “Swiss-made, pharmaceutical-grade and utilize precise micro-dosing to address bio-individual needs and deficiencies”. Each formula features a unique blend of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, amino acids and prebiotics delivered in granules. The supplements are designed to mimic the way the body assimilates food, thus maximizing bioavailability.
“Bioniq’s innovative approach to nutrition is based on the idea that everyone has different nutritional needs and deficiencies, and that generic multivitamins are not enough to address them. We are impressed by Bioniq’s vision and technology, and we believe that they are disrupting the supplement industry with their personalized and science-based approach. We are excited to support them as they grow and scale their business,” explained Shravin Mittal, CEO of Unbound.

Enhanced Power And Performance
This latest Nissan Patrol is the most powerful version of the off-roader yet, thanks to a newly developed 3.5-liter V6 twin-turbo engine. This powerplant delivers 425 horsepower and 700 Nm of torque, channeled through a sophisticated 9-speed automatic transmission.
The Patrol’s dynamic suspension utilizes advanced e-damper technology that adapts automatically to varying driving conditions. Meanwhile, adaptive air suspension allows drivers to adjust the vehicle’s ride height, ensuring a seamless transition between highway driving and challenging off-road conditions.
Luxurious Interior And Advanced Technology
Inside, the all-new Patrol offers a spacious, luxurious cabin. A panoramic sunroof lets in natural light, creating an airy and inviting environment. Infotainment includes a 28.6-inch main display, complemented by two 14.3-inch displays for navigation, media, and vehicle settings. Rear passengers can enjoy (optional) dual 12.8-inch screens supporting Miracast, HDMI, and USB inputs.
The Patrol’s sound system features 12 Klipsch Premium speakers, delivering exceptional audio quality. Connectivity comes courtesy of NissanConnect 2.0 and Google Built-In, providing seamless smartphone integration for everyone inside.
