The nine visible Alicante rounds span from November 2021 through March 2025, with the two most recent closing in early 2025: Suitpax (AI, Pre-Seed, undisclosed) on March 5 and WATIF (Hardware, Pre-Seed, $210K) on February 3. Pre-Seed is the dominant stage across this dataset — four of the seven rounds with disclosed stage data sit at Pre-Seed, with disclosed sizes ranging from $20K (Kilauea Woods®, November 2021) to $210K (WATIF, February 2025). The funding activity is broadly distributed across sectors: AI, hardware, apps, consumer goods, professional services, food and beverage, clothing and apparel, and consumer electronics each appear once.
The largest disclosed round belongs to Embention, a consumer electronics company that raised $8M via Post-IPO Equity in July 2022 — the only post-early-stage deal in this set. FacePhi (apps, $5M, March 2024) and Gravity Wave (professional services, $540K Seed, February 2024) follow as the next largest. No single sector or stage dominates, and no investor names are disclosed in the current dataset.
