Nassau, New Providence accounts for all seven funded startups visible in this Bahamas dataset, spanning financial services, blockchain, real estate, and community and lifestyle. Financial services is the most active sector by count, with four companies — Raise, METARIVER, Alpha Blue Ocean, and FTX — all headquartered in Nassau. FTX's $421M Series B in October 2021 is the largest single round shown and dominates the aggregate capital picture; removing it leaves the remaining six companies with a combined disclosed total well under $40M.
Activity outside 2021 is concentrated in 2022–2023, with Cannaverse Technologies ($13M), Alpha Blue Ocean ($8M), Partanna ($12M Pre-Seed), and METARIVER all closing rounds across that window. The most recent entry is Aori, a blockchain and cryptocurrency company that raised $3M in May 2025. Two rounds — Raise and METARIVER — carry undisclosed amounts, meaning actual deployed capital is higher than what the disclosed figures reflect.
