INFOGRAPHIC: Top Asian Startup Funding — Week 15, 2025
These are the funding deals we tracked in the Asian region this week — featuring Juspay, Haball, Noematrix, Easebuzz, Cinch, Mosaic Wellness, Prazer Therapeutics, Linkerbot, Eloelo, and Xindus.
Asia’s startup funding scene shows no signs of slowing down, with over $270 million tracked this week across fintech, AI, healthtech, and logistics in over five countries. From full-stack payments platforms to circular tech models and embodied intelligence, investors seem to be doubling down on scalable innovation.
At the top of the list is India’s Juspay, which bagged $60 million in a Series D round to boost its AI investments and refine its digital payments infrastructure across global markets. This marks its first major raise in over three years—a move that comes as competition heats up in India’s maturing payments space.
Riding close behind, Pakistan’s Haball raised $52 million in a pre-Series A round, combining equity and strategic financing to deepen its Shariah-compliant supply chain offering and kick off expansion into Saudi Arabia by 2025.
In the AI space, China’s Noematrix landed up to $30 million in a pre-A++ round, with plans to supercharge its embodied AI systems for robotics, retail fulfillment, and food processing. It’s one of the most heavily funded AI robotics startups in the region this year, and its rapid-fire rounds suggest investors are betting big on its “production-attached” data model.
Back in India, Easebuzz pulled in $30 million in Series A funding to improve its SaaS tools, grow its merchant network, and advance its suite of digital billing and payment solutions. The Pune-based fintech is now aiming to cement its place as a go-to biller for industries like education, real estate, and SaaS.
Meanwhile, Singapore’s Cinch secured $28.8 million to scale its subscription-based circular tech model, which gives users access to refurbished devices like smartphones and laptops while tackling Asia’s growing e-waste problem.
India’s Mosaic Wellness also made headlines with a $20 million raise to expand its men’s, women’s, and kids’ wellness brands—including Man Matters and Little Joys—and scale its digital-first healthcare platform to more users. This funding round puts the startup at a $400 million valuation.
Over in Seoul, Prazer Therapeutics clinched $20 million in Series B funding to grow its pipeline of targeted protein degradation (TPD) therapies for neurodegenerative diseases and cancer.
Robotics also got a boost this week with China’s Linkerbot pulling in $14 million in seed funding to push forward its embodied intelligence platform. Backed by HongShan’s seed fund, the startup is racing to become a key player in the evolving robotics-as-a-service segment.
In entertainment, India’s Eloelo raised $13.3 million in Series B funding to grow its live social gaming platform—part of a broader trend in India’s creator economy where gamified content is driving monetization.
Rounding out the week, logistics startup Xindus, based in India, closed a $10 million Series A round to support global trade for SMEs across sectors like fashion and wellness. With a current GMV of $30 million, the startup now has its eyes set on hitting $200 million over the next year and a half.
This week’s deals reflect where the region is headed: bolder bets on infrastructure, smarter AI, and consumer-focused platforms with global ambitions.
