Recently Funded Startups in Brighton

Updated Sep 2026

Funded startups in Brighton number 19 in FundedIQ, tracked with their funding rounds, amounts, investors, industries, locations and company details. This page provides an overview of the startup funding landscape in Brighton, along with the 19 most recently funded startups there.

Startups in Brighton closed 9 funding rounds over the last 24 months, 3 of them in the last 12 months, and raised $84M in disclosed capital. The median disclosed round is $4.0M, with the middle half of rounds falling between $250K and $18M. Commerce and Shopping, Artificial Intelligence and Biotechnology hold the most companies by sector.

Commerce and Shopping dominates the local mix, though Artificial Intelligence and Biotechnology provide significant weight. This variety means filtering by sub-sector is essential to separate retail tech from deep science. Seed stage companies with small teams define the typical profile, while larger headcounts remain rare. The presence of Consumer Electronics and Information Technology adds a hardware layer to a primarily software focused region.

About the FundedIQ Brighton startup funding data

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 19 funded startups in Brighton currently tracked. Round counts, capital totals and the median round are computed over a trailing 24 months. Rounds whose amount was not disclosed (4 of 9 in that period) are counted as rounds but excluded from capital totals and from the median. The most recent round on record for funded startups in Brighton is dated Jun 2026.

The table above shows the 19 most recently funded companies. Full funding histories, investor lists and founder contacts across the whole dataset open on a FundedIQ plan.
