GoRocky Raises Pre-Seed Funding to Revolutionize Men’s Health in the Philippines

Manila, September 14, 2023 - GoRocky, a pioneering men's health startup, is proud to announce the successful completion of its pre-seed funding campaign. This funding marks a significant milestone for GoRocky, reinforcing its commitment to revolutionizing men's health in the Philippines. The round was led by key investors including reputable investors and tech leaders from Germany and the Philippines, Buko Ventures, IdeaSpace Investments, Pulse 63, and Kaya Founders.

GoRocky is on a mission to address stigmatized chronic conditions like erectile dysfunction by offering discreet, affordable, and accessible health treatments. The company's innovative approach combines online assessments, doctor prescriptions, and medicine deliveries to empower men to take control of their health. Patients can simply fill out an anonymous 4-minute questionnaire, and a licensed doctor reviews their responses before prescribing the necessary medication, which is then discreetly delivered to their doorstep at an affordable price.

The Philippines is home to a staggering number of men silently suffering from various stigmatized health conditions. Approximately 14 million men in the country experience erectile dysfunction, 16 million grapple with hair loss, and another 15 million struggle with skincare issues. Due to the pervasive stigma surrounding these conditions, most men opt to suffer in silence rather than seeking treatment. GoRocky aims to change this narrative by creating a culture shift in how men approach their health.

“Many men suffer in silence from stigmatized conditions. They often avoid the issue, do not talk to their closest ones and would not dare to talk to a doctor in person. We try to help men cross that bridge.

GoRocky's mission is to break the silence surrounding men's health issues and make discreet, effective treatments readily accessible to all," said Kiyanusch Braun, CEO & co-founder of GoRocky. "We are thrilled to have the support of our investors, who share our vision of transforming men's health in the Philippines and Southeast Asia."

Joaqui Palaña, CCO & Co-Founder of GoRocky, added, "Our focus on destigmatizing these health conditions is at the core of GoRocky's mission. We believe that by providing accessible and discreet solutions, we are able to help men prioritize their health and well-being so they can be the best version of themselves."

With this pre-seed funding, GoRocky is poised to expand its offerings beyond erectile dysfunction and sexual health to address additional areas such as skincare, hair loss, and mental health. The company is envisioned to become the #1 men's health provider in the Philippines and Southeast Asia.

This investment will enable GoRocky to further develop its platform, enhance its services, and reach a larger audience of men seeking discreet and effective health treatments. GoRocky is dedicated to making a meaningful impact on men's health and challenging the stigma surrounding these critical issues.
