Disclosed rounds in this Cornwall set show one clear size outlier: Cornish Lithium raised $68M on 2023-08-08, dwarfing the next-largest disclosed amounts of $88M (Kensa Group, 2023-05-16) and $70M (Horizon Agri, 2026-04-08 is undisclosed; the $70K row is Horizon Agri 2026-04-08, so the next-largest disclosed after $88M is $70M at Cornish Lithium? In the rows, the disclosed $88M is the highest, held by Kensa Group on 2023-05-16; therefore the only true “dwarfs the next-largest” comparison is $88M vs $68M). Kensa Group’s $88M (2023-05-16) sits far above the rest of the disclosed amounts, where most are in the hundreds of thousands to single-digit millions (for example, Engineered Arts at $10M on 2024-12-17 and Origin Coffee at $4M on 2023-10-17).
Date-wise, activity clusters around mid-2023: three large disclosed entries land in 2023-05 (Kensa Group $88M on 2023-05-16, plus Origin Coffee $4M on 2023-10-17 is outside; closer to the same window also includes Good With (undisclosed) on 2023-05-26 and British Lithium’s $2M grant on 2022-09-09). Most records are “Series Unknown” or “undisclosed” rather than explicitly labeled: 10 rows are “Series Unknown” and 4 rows list “undisclosed,” spanning rounds from 2020-07-20 (Codices Interactive) to 2026-05-09 (Cornish Pirates).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in this Cornwall list, and how concentrated is deal size above the rest?
Kensa Group’s $88M (2023-05-16) is the largest disclosed amount shown. The next-largest disclosed figure is Cornish Lithium’s $68M (2023-08-08), with several other disclosed rounds notably smaller, such as Engineered Arts at $10M (2024-12-17) and Origin Coffee at $4M (2023-10-17).
Which time window shows the tightest clustering among the disclosed entries shown?
A mid-2023 cluster is visible: multiple entries appear between 2023-05 and 2023-08, including Kensa Group ($88M) on 2023-05-16, Good With (undisclosed) on 2023-05-26, and Cornish Lithium ($68M) on 2023-08-08. Separately, another multi-month stretch runs through 2024, with deals such as Engineered Arts ($10M) on 2024-12-17 and Green Park Pharma ($3M) on 2026-01-13 falling outside that year’s window, indicating the list is uneven rather than evenly distributed.
Are any cities or locations recurring enough to suggest a local concentration pattern?
Truro appears repeatedly (Cornish Tin at $3M on 2026-03-31, Green Power Solutions at $230K on 2024-11-11, and Kensa Group at $88M on 2023-05-16), suggesting a recurring hub. Helston also shows up more than once (Goonhilly Earth Station at $2M on 2025-11-21 and Wildanet at $35M on 2024-07-16).
What stage and disclosure mix dominates these 26 rows?
“Series Unknown” appears in 10 rows and “undisclosed” appears in 4 rows, so 14 of 26 records avoid a disclosed stage/amount combination. Among labeled rounds, Seed and later stages still show up (TruePlayers Seed at $190K on 2026-02-06; Tenpoint Therapeutics Series A at $70M on 2023-07-12), but the labeling is inconsistent across the list.
Which entries look like outliers worth deeper diligence by sector or size?
Beyond the $88M outlier at Kensa Group (Energy, 2023-05-16), energy-linked rounds recur at the high end: Cornish Lithium ($68M, Energy, 2023-08-08) and Kensa Group ($88M, Energy, 2023-05-16). On the other side, very small disclosed amounts stand out as floor-level datapoints, including Gummee at $30K (2024-02-07) and Horizon Agri at $70K (2026-04-08).
