An edutech startup and a service that helps you to cut down the queue line share the throne for Startup of the Month in July
Can’t believe this actually happened. We asked the e27 Community to vote for the Startup of the Month winner on our Telegram Group and Twitter handle, and we came out with two winners!
The first one is AI-powered school administration platform Edusuite, which had recently announced an over US$235,000 seed funding round from the Manila Angel Investors Network (MAIN). Two of the startup’s clients –Batangas Eastern Colleges (BEC) and Sumulong College of Arts and Sciences– also participated in the funding round.
Edusuite stole our attention for providing a service that helps schools optimise their resources and make smart decisions.
The other winner is QueQ, a Thai startup that aims to help customers queue for their spot in a dining or retail outlet with the touch of a button –from the comfort of their own home.
QueQ has recently raised a US$2.8 million Series A funding round from True Incube and Bon Angels Venture Partner.

The startup stole our hearts with their unique service and rapid expansion move –it already has a presence in Malaysia and Thailand and is looking forward to entering Taiwan, Japan, and Hong Kong.
For the runner-up, this month we also have two startups vying for the same spot — Brunei’s Memori and Malaysia’s Naluri.
Memori is a legacy-planning platform that has recently raised additional seed funding round from an undisclosed member of an Asian royal family.
Naluri, a healthtech startup founded by former iflix CEO Azran Osman-Rani, has recently raised a US$1.5 million oversubscribed pre-Series A funding round led by Global Founders Capital.
Congratulations and best of luck to the companies!
