Talking point: MindBeacon was founded five years ago to provide online mental health therapy through its Beacon service, and has seen a surge in revenue since the start of the pandemic. Its filings state that the company’s revenue climbed from $4.7 million for the full calendar year of 2019, to $6.6 million for just the nine months ending September 30. It had previously planned to raise $30 million privately, but shifted to the public markets after strong go-public performances from tech stocks like Nuvei. The increased offering is expected to be made public this week, according to The Globe and Mail.
