We at TA Ventures are thrilled to be part of HD’s Series A-1 strategic extension round alongside MSD (Merck in North America) their first-ever healthcare startup investment in APAC. HD’s innovative marketplace and Jib AI platform are transforming healthcare access across Southeast Asia, addressing critical shifts in patient navigation, provider networks, and pharma engagement. Exciting times ahead for healthcare innovation for the region and congratulations to the HD team Sheji Ho, Frankie Shum and Raya Ten Chantaramungkorn. https://lnkd.in/gdKjcNh3
Announcing Our Series A-1 Strategic Extension Round with MSD https://lnkd.in/gDVdswnj We are pleased to announce our Series A-1 strategic extension round in partnership with MSD (known as Merck in North America), a global leader in healthcare. Notably, this marks MSD IDEA Studio Asia Pacific's first-ever investment in a healthcare startup in APAC, underscoring the growing momentum for innovation and transformation in the region's healthcare ecosystem. Over the past 12 months, as we scaled our healthcare marketplace and care navigator platform while introducing our Jib AI autonomous agent, it has become increasingly evident that emerging Southeast Asia is at the center of a major transformation in healthcare. This shift is unfolding across all five "P's" of healthcare: 🔹 Patient – Post-pandemic and post-AI, healthcare navigation is rapidly shifting online. While "consumer healthcare" remains aspirational in many Western markets, in emerging Southeast Asia, digital-first healthcare adoption is accelerating. AI is enabling consumers to become more informed, proactive participants in their healthcare journeys. 🔹 Payer – Budgetary pressures on public healthcare systems are driving a shift toward private sector solutions, placing greater responsibility on consumers to navigate their healthcare options. 🔹 Provider – The influx of new public and private sector players is leading to increased capacity, overbuilding, and fragmentation, reshaping how healthcare services are delivered. 🔹 Pharma – Similar to trends in Western markets, there is growing interest in Direct-to-Patient (DTP) initiatives, allowing pharmaceutical companies to enhance access and engagement while addressing inefficiencies in traditional channels. 🔹 Platform – The rapid advancement and commoditization of AI are creating opportunities for traditionally service-intensive healthcare models to achieve greater efficiency and scalability, leveraging vertical AI moats. We extend our gratitude to our shareholders, stakeholders, and teams for their continued support as we drive forward the next phase of healthcare innovation in Southeast Asia.

This March, Yepoda takes beauty to the next level!
Yepoda is coming to SEPHORA! ✨🤩 We’ve kept this secret for almost a year, but now we can finally share it: We are coming to SEPHORA! 😱 For those who know us, you’ll know that we’ve been very selective about retail. Until now, we’ve focused entirely on our own online store and our pop-ups. We felt like our own channels were the best way to build our brand. But that changes NOW! From mid-March, Yepoda will be available in SEPHORA stores across Europe. 🙌🏼 After 4.5 years of Yepoda, this is our biggest retail (or even overall) step yet and truly feels like a new chapter for our brand – one that we could not be more excited about! 🤩 A huge THANK YOU to our team - this wouldn’t be possible without you! 🫰🏼 Who’s ready to see our products at SEPHORA?
This is a significant step forward for Berry Street, and we are proud to have been among the first to believe in the vision of a bright new platform that is truly transforming lives!
💚 We’re proud to be backing Berry Street, the NYC-based telehealth platform connecting patients with chronic conditions to registered dietitians for evidence-based nutrition counseling. As it continues to expand its AI-powered business-in-a-box platform, Berry Street is making high-quality nutrition care more accessible than ever. 🌱 With a rapidly growing network of dietitians and partnerships with over 1,250 insurance plans - including Aetna, a CVS Health Company, Anthem, Inc., Cigna Healthcare, UnitedHealthcare, and multiple Blue Cross Blue Shield Association affiliates - Berry Street is already serving thousands and leading the charge on America’s healthcare crisis. 💲 The company has raised $50M in its latest fundraising from Northzone, Sofina, FJ Labs, Founder of Revolut, Co-Founder of Spring Health, Co-Founder of Grow Therapy, and CEO of Found, amongst others. 💪 Our Partner, Wendy Xiao adds, “The team has built the most engaging consumer and provider-facing apps we have seen in the market as well as automated a lot of the complex back office healthcare functions seamlessly using AI. We’re excited for them to double down on this with this massive capital raise. The data around diet behavior change that Berry Street is building will help them win in this market with payers who are renewing their interest in this category due to the tremendous impact of GLP-1s. On the consumer side, we also believe that these drugs have given consumers a taste of how good it can feel to lead a healthy lifestyle, now they are ready to change their behaviors around eating in order to sustain the results!” We’re proud to have you in our portfolio, Noah Kotlove, Jesse Rose, and team - your work empowering dietitians is more important than ever!
