Frequently asked
What stands out as the largest disclosed deal in the Dayton list, and how does it compare to other disclosed rounds?
Marxent’s disclosed $8M (Series D, dated 2023-05-04) is the top disclosed amount in the 10-row view. The next-largest disclosed rounds are $6M for Niobium Microsystems (Seed, 2024-05-07) and $3M for UNLISTED (Seed, 2024-11-04), with several other disclosed deals below $1M (e.g., Hyphen Innovations $750K on 2023-02-02; Culture Works $500K on 2021-11-20).
Is there a dense window of activity, or are deal dates spread evenly across 2021–2024?
The entries are not evenly spaced: several disclosed rounds cluster between early 2023 and mid-2023, including Hyphen Innovations $750K (2023-02-02), Marxent $8M (2023-05-04), and Healthy Communities Coalition $240K (2023-07-03). The overall date span runs from 2021-11-20 (Culture Works, Grant, $500K) to 2024-12-09 (DEXA, Series Unknown, undisclosed).
Do the entries concentrate in one Dayton geography, or are there meaningful cross-city outliers?
Most entries are tied to Dayton, Ohio: 7 of the 10 rows list Dayton, Ohio, including Marxent (2023-05-04) and Niobium Microsystems (2024-05-07). One out-of-state label appears as Dayton, Nevada for Healthy Communities Coalition ($240K, 2023-07-03), while the remainder are Dayton, Ohio or undetailed as “Dayton, Ohio” in the rows shown.
How dominant are specific stages among disclosed amounts (Seed vs Grant vs others)?
Seed appears with disclosed amounts in two rows: UNLISTED raised $3M on 2024-11-04 and Niobium Microsystems raised $6M on 2024-05-07. Grant appears in three rows with disclosed amounts: AIMM $40K (2022-04-21), Lunnie $50K (2022-04-14), and Sinclair Community College $550K (2022-10-05), while Series D shows only Marxent’s $8M (2023-05-04).
Which entries are outliers due to being much smaller than the rest, or having missing disclosed amounts?
Lowest disclosed amounts include AIMM’s $40K (Grant, 2022-04-21) and Lunnie’s $50K (Grant, 2022-04-14), which are far below the $3M–$8M cluster (UNLISTED $3M on 2024-11-04; Niobium Microsystems $6M on 2024-05-07; Marxent $8M on 2023-05-04).
