Xbyx closes seven-figure financing round

The start-up offers nutritional supplements and courses for menopausal women and has now gained an investor.

The Berlin-based start-up "Xbyx - Women in Balance" has announced the completion of a seven-figure Pre-Series A financing round. The round is financed by Econa AG, the venture and private equity company of a Berlin-based family office. The Auxxo Female Catalyst Fund has also been invested in the start-up since the beginning of 2022. The new financing will be used to expand the team and develop new products.

Xbyx offers herbal supplements and video courses on hormones and fitness for women going through the menopause. "With XbyX, we see ourselves as our customers' best friend, a source of knowledge and a place of understanding," says Monique Leonhardt. She founded the start-up in 2019 with serial entrepreneur Peggy Reichelt. According to the company, it currently has 50,000 customers.

"Women's health and, in particular, topics beyond pregnancy, periods and fertility are still significantly underrepresented in the current market environment," says Jochen Becker from Econa AG. According to Becker, the founders are democratizing a previously neglected sector with their products and knowledge transfer.
