SeaX

SeaX Ventures, a venture capital firm headquartered in San Francisco with office in Bangkok, has helped US medical technology company Skribe Medical run clinical research in Southeast Asia, connecting the startup with hospital partners and recruiting more than 100 patients for its studies.

Melazyme, a precision fermentation startup focused on functional biomolecules, has raised $2 million in a seed funding round led by SeaX Ventures, with participation from Stellaris Venture Partners and Plug and Play Ventures.

Fresh capital will be used to expand in other Asia-Pacific countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, India, and the Philippines and improve the platform to include new features based on accelerated demand driven by the pandemic.
