MindFi, a Singapore-based Asia’s leading corporate mental health and wellness platform, announced an oversubscribed $2 million seed funding round that saw participation from existing investor M Venture Partners and Global Founders Capital fund, a backer of Canva and Slack.

Carousell co-founder Marcus Tan, Carro executive Kenji Narushima and Spin co-founder Derrick Ko also joined the round, among other prominent angel investors in US and Asia

The fresh funding allows MindFi to accelerate its AI-driven product development, localize in key markets, and further pursue its vision of “culturally competent” wellness in a region where cultural values such as interpersonal harmony, loss of face, and filial piety strongly influence people's receptivity to mental health services and support.
