Custom t-shirt design app Snaptee has raised US $750,000 from a group of Hong Kong and Southeast Asian investors. New to this round include Hong Kong-based seed and early stage venture fund SXE Ventures, investment incubator NEST and Groupon founders Danny Yeung and Joel Neoh.
According to a release, the funds will be used to speed up expansion into the US and Japan and for a product update, which co-founder and CEO Wai Lun Hong said will have an added focus on community interaction. “The new version will facilitate how people discover other designers’ work. Users will have more interaction with each other through commenting, tagging and following,” he said.
