Medigo

Let's go! It's Medigo. This Vietnamese startup connects people to high-quality and convenient healthcare services! Now, they've just raised a $2M Series A led by East Ventures.

  • Founded in 2019, they have over 500k active users and almost 1k pharmacy partners in Vietnam's three largest cities.

Investor check. Pavilion Capital and Touchstone Partners also joined in!

  • They raised a $1M seed from investors like Touchstone Partners and VIISA in 2021.

🤒 Started from the bottom

After moving back to Vietnam, Medigo's founder learned the hard way about the local healthcare industry's pain points.

  • He couldn't find an open pharmacy to find medicine for his daughter, who was running a fever one night.
  • This is even tougher in rural areas, where few (to zero) pharmacies exist. Plus, there are thousands of independent pharmacies in Vietnam with different levels of quality.

😎 Now we're here

Doctor's always in. No matter where you are, you can get consultations with leading doctors across different specialties through Medigo's online telehealth service.

Quick, quick. Order and receive the medicine you need in just 20 minutes from licensed pharmacies near you! Their services run 24/7, so you'll always have access to medicine, especially during emergencies.

On top of that, you can even consult with a pharmacist who will give you advice on which medicine fits your needs!

💰 What's with the $$$?

They'll be doubling down on their services and their offerings as they build their own healthcare ecosystem!

  • Beyond just their telehealth and medicine delivery services, they're also working on home testing services like blood, urine and pregnancy tests.
  • They'll also expand to tier 2 cities like Binh Duong, Vung Tau and Hai Phong!
