Clozette lands US$10m in Series C funding

SINGAPORE-BASED beauty and lifestyle media firm Clozette has raised US$10 million in Series C funding from the Cool Japan Fund, a public-private fund under Japan's Economy, Trade and Industry ministry.

The investment will go into scaling the company's data-driven content and analytics platform, expanding its presence in new markets and developing an interactive Cool Japan Ecosystem, Clozette said.

The Cool Japan Ecosystem, to be launched in June, will promote Japanese fashion, beauty, food and travel.
