In Bochum’s most recent funded entries, the largest disclosed round is VMRay’s $34M Series B dated 2022-12-19, which is well above the next-largest disclosed amounts of $9M (GEMESYS on 2024-11-19) and $5M (Edgeless Systems on 2023-03-07; Lidrotec on 2022-12-20). Several smaller rounds cluster earlier: between 2022-12-19 and 2022-12-20, two disclosed rounds appear ($34M and $5M), while multiple disclosed amounts sit in the $2M–$5M band across 2022-07-11 (Emproof $2M), 2022-07-29 (Antric $3M), and 2023-03-07 (Edgeless Systems $5M). Sector-wise, Artificial Intelligence (AI) shows up in 3 of 10 entries (ENTRYZERO, deeplify, GEMESYS), forming the only repeated technical category. Stage data is mixed: 2 of 10 entries are “undisclosed” by amount (ENTRYZERO 2026-06-25; CENDAS 2024-06-14), and 1 of 10 is “Series Unknown” (CENDAS) plus two more “Series Unknown” records (Masterplan.com 2023-11-03; CENDAS 2024-06-14 are both listed as Series Unknown). Dates span 2022-07-11 through the most recent round on 2026-06-25, with the latest disclosed amount being deeplify’s $2M on 2026-03-30.

Frequently asked

What’s the largest disclosed round in Bochum here, and is it an outlier versus the rest?

VMRay’s $34M Series B on 2022-12-19 is the largest disclosed amount in the 10-row list. The next-largest disclosed rounds are much lower at $9M (GEMESYS, 2024-11-19) and $5M (Edgeless Systems, 2023-03-07; Lidrotec, 2022-12-20), making $34M a clear outlier above most disclosed amounts.

Are there recent time windows where multiple disclosed rounds cluster?

Yes: two disclosed rounds land almost back-to-back on 2022-12-19 (VMRay $34M) and 2022-12-20 (Lidrotec $5M). Beyond that spike, disclosed amounts also recur in the $2M–$5M range across 2022-07-11 (Emproof $2M), 2022-07-29 (Antric $3M), and 2023-03-07 (Edgeless Systems $5M).

Which sectors are over-represented across these 10 entries?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) appears 3 times out of 10 entries (ENTRYZERO, deeplify, GEMESYS). All other shown sectors occur once each (e.g., Education for Masterplan.com 2023-11-03, Hardware for Edgeless Systems 2023-03-07 and Lidrotec 2022-12-20, Information Technology for VMRay 2022-12-19).

How much of the disclosed financing picture is missing due to “undisclosed” or “Series Unknown” labels?

By amount, 2 of 10 entries are “undisclosed” (ENTRYZERO on 2026-06-25; CENDAS on 2024-06-14). By stage label, “Series Unknown” appears in 2 of 10 entries (CENDAS 2024-06-14; Masterplan.com 2023-11-03), so both stage and disclosed amounts are incomplete for a non-trivial share.

What stage mix dominates among the rows with disclosed amounts?

Among disclosed amounts, Pre-Seed includes deeplify ($2M, 2026-03-30) and GEMESYS ($9M, 2024-11-19), while Seed includes Edgeless Systems ($5M, 2023-03-07) and Emproof ($2M, 2022-07-11). Larger disclosed rounds sit in later-labeled stages: VMRay is Series B ($34M, 2022-12-19) and Lidrotec is Series A ($5M, 2022-12-20).
