The median disclosed round is $7.8M, with the middle half of rounds falling between $3.9M and $18M. Dublin and Galway hold the deepest concentrations of these companies. Biotechnology startups in Ireland closed 11 funding rounds over the last 24 months, 3 of them in the last 12 months, and raised $87M in disclosed capital.

Dublin leads the geographic spread. Early stage activity dominates the sector, meaning the pipeline consists largely of unproven concepts and early prototypes. A few massive organizations exist alongside these small teams. This gap between seed ventures and giant firms creates a binary market of high risk and established scale.

About the FundedIQ Biotechnology startup funding data in Ireland

FundedIQ tracks announced startup funding rounds and organises them by company, funding date, stage, amount, industry, location and investor. The dataset is refreshed weekly, and new rounds are normalised and de-duplicated before they are published, so the same round reported twice on different dates is recorded once.

Figures on this page cover the 24 funded Biotechnology startups in Ireland currently tracked. Round counts, capital totals and the median round are computed over a trailing 24 months. Rounds whose amount was not disclosed (3 of 11 in that period) are counted as rounds but excluded from capital totals and from the median. The most recent round on record for funded Biotechnology startups in Ireland is dated Jan 2026.

The table above shows the 24 most recently funded companies. Full funding histories, investor lists and founder contacts across the whole dataset open on a FundedIQ plan.
