Out of 39 rows, the biggest disclosed round is COMPASS Pathways’ $200M (Altrincham, 2026-02-26). That $200M figure dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts in the table, including Cytospire Therapeutics’ $83M (2026-05-05) and Oak hill bio’s $33M (2026-06-01). The smallest disclosed amount shown is Favela Cerveja’s $20K (Chester, 2026-05-01), which sits far below most other disclosed rounds clustered in the hundreds of thousands to tens of millions.

Rounds also cluster by geography and by timing: multiple entries are anchored in Altrincham (FinalDose 2026-06-16, Oak hill bio 2026-06-01, Cytospire Therapeutics 2026-05-05, COMPASS Pathways 2026-02-26), while other towns like Chester and Wilmslow appear repeatedly as well. Temporally, the most recent date in the list is 2026-06-16 (FinalDose), and the window spans back to 2020-08-05 (Envair Technology). Stage/amount disclosure is mixed: 7 rows are marked “Series Unknown” and 2 are “undisclosed,” with the remaining entries split across named stages.

Frequently asked

Which disclosed round is the outlier, and how far above the rest is it?

COMPASS Pathways’ $200M (2026-02-26, Altrincham) is the clear outlier in disclosed amounts; the next-largest disclosed figures shown are Cytospire Therapeutics at $83M (2026-05-05) and Oak hill bio at $33M (2026-06-01). The $20K Favela Cerveja round (2026-05-01, Chester) is the low end among disclosed amounts.

Do any cities show repeated deal flow within this list?

Altrincham is the most consistently represented location, with multiple entries across different dates and sizes, including FinalDose $500K (2026-06-16), Oak hill bio $33M (2026-06-01), Cytospire Therapeutics $83M (2026-05-05), and COMPASS Pathways $200M (2026-02-26). Chester also recurs, including Infex Therapeutics $6M (2026-05-12) and Oxbury Bank $13M (2026-04-13).

What portion of rounds in this listing don’t provide a specific stage or amount?

Stage labeling is incomplete in two ways: 7 companies are marked “Series Unknown” (for example, Hunter Lawyers on 2026-05-19 and PortSwigger on 2024-06-27), and 2 rows have “undisclosed” amounts (including ORBINOVA SOLUTIONS LIMITED on 2026-06-01 and Safety Shield Global on 2026-02-11).

Where do the strongest rounds cluster over time—are they concentrated near 2026-05/06?

A dense set of later rounds appears in May–June 2026, including FinalDose $500K (2026-06-16), Oak hill bio $33M (2026-06-01), Cytospire Therapeutics $83M (2026-05-05), and Favela Cerveja $20K (2026-05-01). The listing runs from 2026-06-16 back to 2020-08-05 (Envair Technology), so the most recent cluster is heavily weighted toward 2026.

Are any sectors over-represented, and are they tied to the biggest rounds?

Biotechnology shows up in multiple entries, including Oak hill bio (Series A, $33M on 2026-06-01), Cytospire Therapeutics ($83M on 2026-05-05), Tharimmune ($55M on 2026-01-20 and $2M on 2024-12-06), and COMPASS Pathways ($200M on 2026-02-26). Several of the largest disclosed amounts in the table are also biotech-linked (notably $200M and $83M).
