Nineteen funded entries are shown for Australian Capital Territory, spanning 2020-09-10 (Smart Blox) through 2026-06-11 (Dentroid). The largest disclosed round is Liquid Instruments at $50M on 2026-04-28; it sits far above the next-largest disclosed amounts of $33M (Seeing Machines, 2024-12-23) and $30M (Quantum Brilliance, 2024-12-10), with most other disclosed rounds in the teens to low-$30M range. A notable cluster appears in mid-2025 through late-2025: Dentroid’s $22M (2026-06-11) and Liquid Instruments’ $50M (2026-04-28) bracket earlier peaks including Seeing Machines at $33M (2024-12-23) and multiple $12M–$17M rounds in 2025 (Haast $12M on 2026-04-09; Acorn $17M on 2025-06-18; QuintessenceLabs $13M on 2025-04-03).
Stage and disclosure are uneven: 6 of 19 rows are labeled “Series Unknown” (including Heaps Normal, QuintessenceLabs, and Berrijam), and 4 of 19 are “undisclosed” amounts (e.g., Heaps Normal and Goterra). Geographically, most entries list Canberra, with two Fyshwick locations (AUCloud at $9M on 2023-07-03 and Smart Blox at $100K on 2020-09-10), which includes the smallest disclosed amount in the dataset.

Frequently asked
What stands out most in disclosed round sizes across these 19 ACT entries?
Liquid Instruments’ $50M (2026-04-28) is the only disclosed round above $33M; the next-largest disclosed amounts are $33M for Seeing Machines (2024-12-23) and $30M for Quantum Brilliance (2024-12-10), while the rest of the disclosed amounts largely cluster between about $3M and $29M (e.g., Terria $3M on 2024-12-11; Nourish Ingredients $29M on 2022-10-19).
Are Canberra and Fyshwick contributing differently to the list, especially for outliers?
Canberra dominates the geography (most entries list Canberra, including Dentroid on 2026-06-11 and Haast on 2026-04-09), while Fyshwick appears in fewer rows: AUCloud is in Fyshwick with $9M on 2023-07-03, and Smart Blox is also Fyshwick but at $100K on 2020-09-10, which is the smallest disclosed amount in the dataset.
Which entries fall within the most recent 90 days visible on the page?
Using the latest date shown (2026-06-11), the rows in the subsequent 90-day window include Dentroid (Series A, $22M on 2026-06-11), Liquid Instruments (Series C, $50M on 2026-04-28), and Haast (Series A, $12M on 2026-04-09).
Does the stage and disclosure labeling suggest a concentration in “unknown” classifications?
Yes: 6 of 19 rows are marked “Series Unknown” (e.g., Heaps Normal on 2025-08-11, QuintessenceLabs on 2025-04-03, and Berrijam on 2023-07-07), and 4 of 19 have the amount marked “undisclosed” (including Heaps Normal on 2025-08-11 and Goterra on 2023-12-08).
Are there sector clusters, or is the portfolio broadly spread?
The list is fairly spread, but hardware is a repeat sector: Seeing Machines appears twice (Hardware, $33M on 2024-12-23 and an undisclosed amount on 2022-05-12), and Hardware also includes Vault Cloud ($23M on 2024-12-19) and Quantum Brilliance ($30M on 2024-12-10). That hardware concentration contrasts with otherwise single-appearance sectors like Education (Acorn, $17M on 2025-06-18) and Agriculture and Farming (Terria $3M on 2024-12-11; Goterra undisclosed on 2023-12-08).
Is there a disclosure outlier on the low end that suggests very early financing compared to the rest?
Aurabox is a clear low-end outlier with $500K on 2022-05-05 (Angel), far below the rest of the disclosed amounts (e.g., Syenta $3M on 2022-12-15 and Terria $3M on 2024-12-11). The smallest disclosed amount overall is Smart Blox at $100K on 2020-09-10.
