GIC lead CNY850m Series C financing for Burning Rock.

Synopsis

The financing was led by GIC, followed by LYFE Capital, CMB International Capital, Lilly Asia Ventures, Sequoia Capital China and T&Brothers Capital. This is another meaningful financing round after Burning Rock completed the CNY300m Series B financing in 2016 by Sequoia, LYFE, CMB and Legend Star. The proceeds will primarily be used for early cancer detection product development and sales and marketing force expansion for the companion diagnostics business. Burning Rock will continue to lead cancer genetic testing industry in China, build an international leading tumor precision medicine brand and allow more people to benefit from genetic testing. Mr. Choo Yong Cheen, Chief Investment Officer of Private Equity at GIC, said, "As a long-term investor, we believe in the adoption of precision medicine in the future of cancer treatment and seek to work with leading players in the field to provide better treatment for cancer patients. Since its inception, Burning Rock has built a strong team with extensive experiences in R&D, sales and marketing. We hope Burning Rock to continue to uphold its standards and achieve more breakthroughs in cancer screening and diagnostics."
