Try Dealroom → (Nasdaq: CUPR) said it closed the sale of an additional 648,373 Class A ordinary shares.

What's the endgame? Cuprina plans to use net proceeds to expand into new businesses and markets, fund R&D to broaden its product line, build brand awareness, and invest in equipment and infrastructure. The rest goes to working capital and general corporate purposes.

The signal: The Nasdaq listing gives a small Singapore biomedical firm access to US public markets, a route more Asian healthcare companies are taking to fund cross-border expansion.
