Seeds Capital, Enterprise Singapore’s investment arm , also participated in the round.
A spin-off of ASTAR in 2016, One BioMed is developing digital health platforms for diagnostic testing. It plans to use the fresh funds to commercialize its first product, which is an automated sample preparation device for purification and isolation of nucleic acids from a range of samples.
The company said the device serves as the foundation for its next-generation platforms.
In addition to the funding, Biopath Ventures founding partners Joseph Jeong and Nick Roelofs will be joining One BioMed’s board.
