🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Meta in talks to invest in Kunal Shah's Cred

Significantly, they've also discussed a complete acquisition too!!

Facebook parent Meta, over the past weeks, has held discussions to invest in Indian fintech Cred, at least six people aware of the discussions told Moneycontrol.

While the tech giant has explored investing tens of millions of dollars in Cred as primary capital, it has also evaluated other options, including a full acquisition of the company at a lower valuation and bringing founder Kunal Shah into the organisation in an operating role, sources told Moneycontrol.

“Which path Meta ultimately chooses remains unclear. What is evident, however, is that Cred is in need of fresh capital and Meta has expressed a willingness to back the company,” one of the people cited above said.

A ray of hope! Scientists in Japan have successfully recreated the full hair growth cycle in mice, allowing hair to grow, shed, and regrow naturally.
