VCBeat has learned that on July 15, MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP (hereinafter referred to as “MEI WEI DENTAL”), one of China’s leading dental chain brands, officially announced the completion of its Series B financing at a press conference for its new strategy and funding under the theme “New Future, New Starting Point.” This round of financing was jointly invested by well-known institutions including Fortune Capital, Tianfeng Tianrui, and New Hope Group, with the total amount exceeding RMB 1 billion.
Prior to this round of financing, MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP had already garnered favor from multiple renowned investment institutions, including China Orient Asset Management and Fortune Capital.
Founded in 2016, MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP is China’s first platform-level dental healthcare enterprise developed under the “DSO” model. It has pioneered new development models and business formats within China’s dental industry, continuously empowering outstanding domestic dental chain brands and experts through comprehensive support in strategic investment, standardization, medical technology enhancement, brand management, and digital transformation, thereby facilitating their rapid and personalized growth.
To date, MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP has established nearly 200 dental clinics and hospitals across China’s core urban clusters, supported by a high-caliber network of business partners. With positive operating cash flow and profits over the past two years, the company’s distinctive “DSO” model has proven viable and gained significant market recognition, positioning it as a leader in the dental chain sector.
Under the partner mechanism of MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP, dentist-owners become managers of new institutions. Empowered by MEI WEI’s distinctive “DSO” model, the group not only helps dental medical institutions resolve operational challenges but also supports their expansion and strengthening, enabling them to emerge as regional leaders.
As one of the dental chain organizations with the highest level of informatization management, MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP has made informatization construction its core development strategy since its inception. The Wei Xiaomei Medical Cloud Intelligent Management Platform is built around patient-centric and medical-centric principles. It efficiently enhances clinic operational capabilities by optimizing standard operating procedures (SOPs) and customer relationship management (CRM), implementing intelligent appointment systems and comprehensive treatment planning, and facilitating oral health issue tracking alongside long-term oral health management. In the future, MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP will further integrate digitalization, informatization, and intelligence across its medical services, operations, and management.
Ms. Zhu Liya, Founding Partner and CEO of MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP, stated, “We are deeply grateful for the strong trust and unwavering support from numerous outstanding investment institutions. The growth of MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP has been driven by the recognition of our core shareholders, partners, talented employees, and upstream and downstream collaborators. We will remain true to our original mission and continue to deliver higher-quality dental healthcare services to the Chinese people.”
Guo Pingchuan, Dean and Founder of Aichi Dental, as well as General Manager of the Tianjin Division of MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP, stated: “On its path of development and growth, MEI WEI has continuously forged ahead, accumulated experience, and identified a development model suited to China’s private dental sector, which has attracted dental partners like myself to join.”
Mr. Qi Shen, Partner at Fortune Capital (Dachen Caizhi), shared: “The current dental industry resembles the ophthalmology sector from a decade ago, with leading enterprises demonstrating their advantages in scale, operational systems, supply chain, and big data. We believe that MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP’s holding-company DSO model is best suited to China’s current market environment. From Series A financing to its present development, MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP has validated our judgment and is rapidly emerging as the national leader.”
Mr. Chen Su, General Manager of Tianfeng Tianrui, stated candidly, “Our strong confidence in Mei Wei is fundamentally rooted in our recognition of its IT-driven management philosophy and partnership model. These are the cornerstones that have enabled Mei Wei Dental Group to become an outstanding dental chain enterprise, as well as the foundation for its future horizontal M&A and upstream expansion. We look forward to accompanying Mei Wei in leading the entire dental chain industry into the next phase of iterative development.”
Mr. Yang Li, President of New Hope Group, an investor in this round, stated, “The dental industry is currently at a pivotal juncture for transformative change. Nationwide leading chain organizations are beginning to take shape, while regional leaders are gradually emerging. Against this backdrop, we believe that MEI WEI DENTAL GROUP will undoubtedly achieve further breakthroughs by leveraging new business models and advanced technologies.”
