Beam’s $40M (2024-10-10) is the largest disclosed amount in the Columbus list, and it is followed by Breakaway Music Festival’s $38M (2025-12-22). The next-largest disclosed step falls to $20M (Finite State, 2024-03-22), with several other disclosed rounds concentrated at $15M and below (for example AndHealth at $15M on 2025-08-20; Healia Health at $14M on 2026-07-28).
How concentrated are disclosed deals by disclosure size—does most of the list cluster near smaller rounds?
Disclosed amounts are heavily concentrated: 26 of 31 disclosed rounds are at or above $1M, while only 7 disclosed rounds reach $10M or more. The extremes are visible as HDO Health’s $0K (2023-11-09) versus multiple mid-to-high disclosed rounds such as AndHealth $15M (2025-08-20) and Condado Tacos $10M (2025-11-23).
Are rounds more active in a particular time window within the displayed range?
Yes: the activity is back-weighted toward newer entries, with 16 rounds in 2025 and 13 rounds in 2026, versus 12 rounds in 2023 and 9 in 2024. The range runs from 2023-04-06 (oldest) to 2026-08-04 (most recent), reflecting a denser recent cadence.
What stage labeling dominates, and how should that shape deal screening?
Series Unknown dominates the stage field with 30 entries, compared with Seed (9), Series A (3), Pre-Seed (2), Venture - Series Unknown (2), and single entries for Private Equity (1), Series D (1), an unlabelled stage (1), and Series B (1). For example, a large disclosed round like Healia Health’s $14M (2026-07-28) is labeled Series A, while many other sizable financings are filed under “Series Unknown.”
Do any sectors appear repeatedly enough to suggest a focused hiring/investment theme in Columbus?
Information Technology (5) and Health Care (5) are the most repeated sectors, with Financial Services (4) and Biotechnology (4) also appearing multiple times. This aligns with large-health disclosures such as AndHealth $15M (2025-08-20) and Healia Health $14M (2026-07-28), alongside IT/AI-linked entries like RWX (Developer Tools/IT) at $12M (2026-08-04) and Upwage (AI) at $7M (2023-07-01).
