Singapore-based Jungle Ventures has announced the merger of HealthXCapital (HXC) team to lead the firm's healthcare investments in India and Southeast Asia.

Founded in 2018 by Seemant Jauhari, HXC has invested in around 10 healthtech startups, including RED.Health, Homage, Medfin and THB. The VC firm offers capital, clinical validation and commercialisation through strategic investors from the industry.

Two investment professionals from HealthXCapital's team Seemant Jauhari, managing partner and Jimit Patel, senior associate will be joining Jungle Ventures too, Jauhari reportedly said, adding that he has been made a partner for the healthcare vertical.
