The Saudi Internet Health Application Technology (Sihatech) Company, is proud to announce its inclusion in CNBC's Upstart 100 list of top startups from around the world. Sihatech is the only startup selected from Saudi Arabia and one of only two startups from the Middle East and North Africa region.

Every year, CNBC scans the globe looking for the top 100 venture-backed start-ups that have the potential to transform industries and become tomorrow’s household names. The 2019 Upstart 100 list showcases young start-ups that are building and scaling businesses addressing the rapidly changing technological era we live in. Selected from more than 600 nominees globally, each startup was scored on eight equally weighted quantitative metrics (read more about our methodology here).

Each Upstart has successfully raised venture capital, which means valuations are still relatively low, while promise and potential are high. And although the unicorns of 2019 have represented at times frothy, fadlike market trends, the Upstart 100 companies present a broader picture of where venture capitalists are placing their bets in the more distant future.

The companies that made this year’s Upstart 100 list represent nearly every sector of the economy, from enterprise software and finance to insurance, health care and retail. They come from 10 different countries, 16 U.S. states and DC. Of the 100, 25 are led by women. All of them are less than five years old, but 40 are less than three years old and 11 were founded just last year.

This honor comes on the heels of Sihatech CEO, Mr. Ahmed Al Bader, inclusion amongst the top elite eight group of technology executives and founders in Saudi Arabia by ArabNet.

Earlier this year, Sihatech was also honored to be invited to represent the Saudi Healthcare sector at the "Re-Imagine the Future Event" which was held recently in San Fransisco on the heels of the official US trip by His Royal Highness Prince Mohammad Bin Salman Al Saud, the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
