Do these entries concentrate in a narrow time window, or are they spread out across years?

They are spread across multiple years: 2026-04-02 (Carolina Seed Systems) back to 2021-11-22 (Renovation Brands). Within the more recent half, several deals land in 2024 (CHONEX 2024-12-04, Lighthouse Ministries 2024-09-12, Carv 2024-06-13, Custom Donations 2024-06-04, G-LAB Legacies 2024-02-15), but the list also includes 2025 (Liablix 2025-12-03) and 2023 (Equixly 2023-09-08; Better Blend 2023-03-21).

Is one “Florence” city (by state/country) more represented than others in this set?

South Carolina shows up more often than other specific “Florence” locations: Carolina Seed Systems (Florence, South Carolina on 2026-04-02), Lighthouse Ministries (2024-09-12), Custom Donations (2024-06-04), and G-LAB Legacies (2024-02-15). Italy’s “Florence, Toscana” appears twice (Liablix on 2025-12-03; Equixly on 2023-09-08), with the remaining states/country splits across Alabama, Massachusetts, and Kentucky.

How much of the list is “Series Unknown” or otherwise not quantified, and does that affect outlier detection?

“Series Unknown” appears in 5 of 10 rows (Carolina Seed Systems; CHONEX; Lighthouse Ministries; Carv; G-LAB Legacies). Separately, 3 of 10 rows have “undisclosed” amounts (Carv on 2024-06-13; Better Blend on 2023-03-21; Renovation Brands on 2021-11-22), which limits comparisons to the remaining disclosed amounts when identifying concentration and outliers.

Commerce and Shopping also appears twice (Better Blend on 2023-03-21 and Renovation Brands on 2021-11-22), while AI is represented by Equixly (2023-09-08; $2M).

Which entries are likely the most actionable from a recency standpoint, based on the round date and disclosed amounts?
