Updated Sep 2026
FundedIQ tracks 694 funded startups in Colorado, with their funding rounds, amounts, investors, industries, locations and company details. This page provides an overview of the startup funding landscape in Colorado, along with the 100 most recently funded startups there.
Startups in Colorado closed 270 funding rounds over the last 24 months, 147 of them in the last 12 months, and raised $11B in disclosed capital. The median disclosed round is $7.0M, with the middle half of rounds falling between $1.9M and $39M. Artificial Intelligence, Health Care and Energy hold the most companies by sector. Denver and Boulder hold the deepest concentrations of funded startups in Colorado.
Denver and Boulder anchor a concentration of early stage ventures. While aerospace and biotechnology define the region, a hidden layer of software tools for agriculture and outdoor recreation creates a diverse mix. Filtering by sub-sector reveals a heavy tilt toward Seed and Pre-Seed ventures, meaning the pipeline consists mostly of unproven concepts rather than scaled enterprises.
