What funding stages appear most often across these 50 companies?
Seed is the most frequent stage, covering 19 of the 50 records.

Pre-Seed covers five records, with Series B, C, D, and one Series E making up the remainder.
How active has fundraising been in 2025?
Seven of the 50 records carry 2025 close dates, with the most recent being traplinked's $2M Seed in Nürnberg (June 2025). Three of the seven list undisclosed amounts — desk.ly (Osnabrück), ROTOP (Dresden), and Debtist (Bad Dürkheim). The four disclosed 2025 rounds — traplinked, amberSearch, PROSERVATION, and Menlo79 — all fall in the $1M–$2M range.
Are there notable geographic clusters outside Berlin?
Baden-Württemberg is the clearest secondary cluster, with six companies spanning Stuttgart, Freiburg, Heidelberg, Offenburg, Karlsruhe, and Ludwigsburg-eglosheim — including Recyda GmbH ($7M Series A) and Workwise ($13M Series A). Nordrhein-Westfalen has three entries — amberSearch (Aachen), CENDAS (Bochum), and Talents Connect (Köln) — and Bayern beyond Munich includes traplinked in Nürnberg and Heynannyly in Höchstadt An Der Aisch.
What share of rounds have undisclosed amounts?
Approximately 14 of the 50 rounds list undisclosed amounts, cutting across all stage types — from Pre-Seed (Boomerang, Clypp) to Series Unknown (ROTOP, CENDAS, aconso). The pattern is geographically spread rather than concentrated, appearing in Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, and smaller cities alike, which suggests disclosure reflects company choice more than stage or location.
