Berlin, March 26, 2025 - YPOG advised Project A Ventures, Partech, Burda Principal Investments (BPI) and Quadrille Capital on the €240 million financing round of the Berlin-based company AMBOSS. Other investors participating in the round were KIRKBI, M&G Investments and Lightrock.  

The health and EdTech company AMBOSS, founded in Berlin in 2012 by Sievert Weiss, Madjid Salimi, Nawid Salimi and Benedikt Hochkirchen, is revolutionizing the transfer of medical knowledge. The platform combines learning software and reference work for doctors - from university to specialist exams. With up-to-date knowledge in a matter of seconds, AMBOSS supports efficient, evidence-based healthcare. Over one million users worldwide rely on the company. 

In 2024, AMBOSS, which recently converted into a European Company (SE), acquired Novaheal, a start-up in the care sector, and NEJM Knowledge+, an exam preparation product for junior doctors in the USA. The international team has now grown to over 400 doctors, scientists and software developers with offices in Cologne, Berlin and New York. 

The backing of the investors will primarily be used to enter additional international markets and to expand the offering for nurses and other healthcare professionals. In addition, the latest financing round significantly improves access to capital for AMBOSS.
