Kicking off January with these later stage funding rounds

In terms of number, the later stage funding round coverage that we got to write in January may not be impressive. But we still managed to uncovered something unique about these funding rounds.

First, we continued to see investment pouring into the e-commerce sector, particularly in startups that work to help other e-commerce businesses such as aCommerce. This indicated investors’ growing interest in the B2B sector, which had been predicted since late last year.

Healthtech sector also continued to gain popularity with an investment in Homage.

Lastly, also from the B2B sector, AppsFlyer announced its latest funding round and plan to further expand in the Asia Pacific region.

aCommerce
Funding: US$15M

This round comes almost six months after aCommerce secured a US$10 million round from existing shareholders including KKR & Co. in July 2019.
