This model has enabled impressive growth in all aspects of the brand. And with this round, it is established that the concept and model have also gained investors’ trust. We are glad that with the right mentorship from the investors, we will be able to accelerate our pace towards achieving our ambition of solving mental health at scale in India and beyond”, Krishna Veer Singh, Co-Founder, Lissun said.
