Gulf Business Magazine has named Looms among the top 10 healthtech startups in the GCC for 2026, recognising the platform's impact on patient record management and clinic operations across the region.
The recognition
The Gulf Business HealthTech 10 list is compiled annually by the magazine's editorial team, with input from a panel of regional healthcare executives and investors. Companies are evaluated on innovation, clinical impact, market adoption and patient outcomes.
Looms was recognised specifically for its QR-verified document issuance system, AI-powered lab result analysis and the growth of its clinic network across the UAE.
What patients and clinics are saying
The recognition reflects feedback we hear regularly from the people who use Looms. Patients tell us the platform has changed how they think about their health data — they feel in control for the first time. Clinic administrators describe time savings of hours per week on administrative tasks.
We're proud of what the team has built, and we're more motivated than ever to keep improving.
Thank you
Recognition like this belongs to our team, our clinical advisors and the patients and providers who gave us honest feedback from day one. We're grateful to Gulf Business for shining a light on the innovation happening in regional healthtech.
