About
July redesigns suitcases to address traveler pain points, centering product engineering and go-to-market efforts around expansion into Singapore and Shanghai.
Mission
July is a luggage startup that aims to redesign suitcases from the ground up to overcome common traveler pain points and frustration. It was unofficially founded in April last year by Athan Didaskalou and Richard Li after they met by chance in a Collingwood coffee shop. The company launched nine months before this fundraise and positions itself to disrupt the luggage industry. July has raised $10.5 million to support expansion and product development. The funding will fuel global expansion, with Singapore and Shanghai named as primary focuses. The leadership emphasizes product redesign as the core of its go-to-market effort.
