Across the 35 corporate-round entries shown, the largest disclosed amount is OneWeb’s $300M corporate round dated 2021-08-12, which is far above the next-largest disclosed rounds ($58M LiveScore Group on 2022-09-07 and $54M Thought Machine on 2022-02-14). Most other disclosed deals cluster well below $60M, while a large share of rounds are undisclosed (14 of 35), creating a clear disclosure-size skew.
The dataset is also city-concentrated: London appears repeatedly (e.g., Celsius Network $39M on 2022-10-24; Huma $33M on 2022-03-23; Thought Machine $54M on 2022-02-14), while non-London locations include Edinburgh (Global Surface Intelligence, 2022-10-25, undisclosed), Sheffield (Mina, 2022-02-08, $100K), and Oxford (Adaptix Ltd, 2021-10-15, $3M). Temporally, rounds span 2021-07-06 (MiNA Therapeutics, $15M) through 2022-10-25 (Global Surface Intelligence, undisclosed), with a dense run in early 2022 (multiple disclosed rounds around March and April).

Frequently asked
What stands out in disclosed deal sizes for UK corporate rounds here?
OneWeb’s $300M round (2021-08-12) is a major outlier versus the rest of the disclosed amounts, with the next-largest in the table being $58M LiveScore Group (2022-09-07) and $54M Thought Machine (2022-02-14). Outside those, many disclosed entries are closer to the $15M–$41M range (for example nDreams $35M on 2022-03-29; Distributed $41M on 2022-02-15).
Are any cities over-represented compared with the rest of the UK locations shown?
London dominates the list, appearing across multiple sectors and dates, including Celsius Network (London, $39M on 2022-10-24) and Huma (London, $33M on 2022-03-23). Non-London entries are present but fewer: Edinburgh (Global Surface Intelligence, 2022-10-25, undisclosed), Sheffield (Mina, 2022-02-08, $100K), Oxford (Adaptix Ltd, 2021-10-15, $3M), and Penzance (Search Machines, 2022-04-04, undisclosed).

Among the disclosed ones, the smallest disclosed amount is $100K, appearing across multiple entries such as Sherpa (2022-03-24, $100K) and Alliants (2022-03-23, $100K).
Which time window concentrates the most activity in this table?
Early 2022 is especially dense, with several disclosed rounds in March and February 2022, including Huma ($33M on 2022-03-23), nDreams ($35M on 2022-03-29), Thought Machine ($54M on 2022-02-14), and Distributed ($41M on 2022-02-15). The range starts at 2021-07-06 (MiNA Therapeutics, $15M) and runs to 2022-10-25 (Global Surface Intelligence, undisclosed).
Are there notable sector patterns, or sectors that look unusually frequent?
No single sector reaches 3+ entries in the data provided, but the list does show repeated “financial services” corporate rounds (for example Celsius Network at $39M on 2022-10-24; HUGHUB at $100K on 2021-10-12; Advanced Logic Analytics at $100K on 2022-02-16; Thought Machine at $54M on 2022-02-14).
