Asia-focused venture capital (VC) firm Mindworks Capital, Finture’s existing investor, led this pure-equity Series B financing. SWC participated in this financing round together with Beijing-based XVC, Richen Pioneer and Antao Capital. Finture secured the new financing five months after it began fundraising in early March.
