Series C funding sends Biofourmis to near-unicorn status
Singapore
HOMEGROWN startup Biofourmis has raised US$100 million in a Series C equity round led by Softbank Vision Fund 2, catapulting the healthcare company to near-unicorn status in a matter of months.
The latest funding, which sources said has quadrupled Biofourmis' valuation from about US$200 million previously, comes despite a slowdown in healthcare investments in the Asia-Pacific over the first half of the year.
