Among the 46 Bethesda entries shown, disclosed round sizes cluster tightly in the single-digit millions, while one outlier breaks the range: Pebblebrook Hotel Trust’s $408M round on 2026-02-12 dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts (Kalamata Capital Group $112M on 2026-04-02 and Chiron Real Estate $100M on 2026-05-06). Most rounds also sit in a broad, recent 12–24 month window, with the newest entry at Relai.ai (Pre-Seed, $5M) on 2026-06-10 and the oldest at Voxy EnGen (Series A, $7M) on 2021-01-07.
Sector and classification patterns are mixed rather than narrowly concentrated: several areas recur, led by Financial Services (Chiron Real Estate $100M in 2026, EB5 Capital $100M in 2025, and Calvert Impact Capital $140M in 2024). Stage labeling is also incomplete: 10 of 46 entries are either “Series Unknown” or “undisclosed” amounts, including undisclosed rounds like Auto AI (2026-03-02) and Flexnode (2026-01-28), so disclosed-size comparisons skew toward the remaining, amount-reported rows.

Frequently asked
Which disclosed round looks like the main outlier in this Bethesda list?
Pebblebrook Hotel Trust’s $408M round (2026-02-12) is the largest disclosed amount shown, materially above the next-largest disclosed amounts of $112M (Kalamata Capital Group, 2026-04-02) and $100M (Chiron Real Estate, 2026-05-06; Employee Navigator $100M also appears on 2025-08-04).
Do the most recent rounds cluster in time, or are they evenly spread across the 2021–2026 window?
They cluster toward the most recent period: the latest entry is Relai.ai on 2026-06-10 (Pre-Seed, $5M), and multiple large disclosed rounds appear in early/mid-2026 such as Chiron Real Estate on 2026-05-06 ($100M) and Kalamata Capital Group on 2026-04-02 ($112M). The list still spans back to 2021-01-07 (Quantum Xchange $14M; Voxy EnGen $7M), so earlier years are present but less dense at the top.
How often are stage labels missing or amounts undisclosed, and does that affect size comparisons?
10 of 46 entries are either marked “Series Unknown” or have an “undisclosed” amount, including undisclosed rounds like Auto AI (2026-03-02) and Flexnode (2026-01-28). That means the visible “largest” and “range” signals primarily reflect the remaining rows with disclosed dollar amounts.
Which sectors appear often enough to suggest a real cluster rather than a one-off?
Financial Services is the clearest repeat sector, appearing across multiple years and sizes: Chiron Real Estate ($100M, 2026-05-06), EB5 Capital ($100M, 2025-02-04), Calvert Impact Capital ($140M, 2024-07-12), and Employee Navigator ($100M, 2025-08-04).
Are there multiple “mid-market” disclosed rounds that form a second tier under the outlier?
Yes. Beneath the $408M outlier, several disclosed rounds sit in a similar middle range: Pebblebrook’s $408M is followed by $230M (India Globalization Capital, 2026-01-05), $250K–$150M dispersion elsewhere, and then $112M (Kalamata Capital Group, 2026-04-02) and $100M (Chiron Real Estate, 2026-05-06; multiple other $100M entries).
What stage mix stands out when you look at disclosed rounds in the recent portion of the list?
The recent entries include several early-stage labels alongside large later-stage/PE-style classifications, such as Relai.ai (Pre-Seed, $5M on 2026-06-10) and Auto AI (Seed, undisclosed on 2026-03-02) alongside very large “Series Unknown” and PE-marked rounds like Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (Series Unknown, $408M on 2026-02-12).
