We’re right back at it with the roundup of startup funding in Japan. Read on to see what caught investors’ eyes last week.
LeapMind
LeapMind is a startup that handles data and automation.
The startup provides technology solutions through deep learning and neural networks. Companies can pay LeapMind to leverage their software and hardware for their own projects. According to the company, their product can be used on projects ranging from designing smart-home electronics to managing emergency response robots.
The startup recently announced receiving over US$101 million in funding.
Famm
Famm is a service that makes calendars out of users’ photos.
The startup provides a way for parents to make a keepsake of their children’s growth. Users can share their photos with the startup and the startup will arrange them by date into a photo calendar. The startup will send one calendar free to users every month, with more copies being available with a paid subscription.
The startup received roughly US$4 million in investments last week, reports The Bridge.
Agrimedia
Agrimedia is a platform that tries to bridge the gap between cities and farmers.
The startup uses web media to find people who are interested in agriculture and farming. While the company also finds full time workers for farming projects, the focus is on finding recreational farmers who want to help with community projects in their region. You could say that Agrimedia is somewhat like WWOOF for domestic projects.
