Among the 11 Fresno-area entries shown, the largest disclosed round is Bitwise Industries’ $50M Series B on 2021-02-24, which sits far above the next-largest disclosed amounts (Wellpointe at $87M in 2025-01-09 is actually the top disclosed figure; the next-largest after the top is Parsec Education at $8M on 2024-12-11). The top disclosed figure is Wellpointe’s $87M (2025-01-09), and it dwarfs the rest of the disclosed rounds, where most amounts are in the hundreds of thousands to low single-digit millions (e.g., Parsec Education $8M on 2024-12-11; Lyles Construction Group $560K on 2023-07-27).
The list also shows a temporal cluster in the most recent two quarters: three rounds with disclosed amounts fall between 2024-12-11 ($8M, Parsec Education), 2024-05-14 ($1M, The Fresno Area Hispanic Foundation), and 2024-08-19 (Gridtractor is undisclosed). Sector coverage is fragmented across Health Care (Wellpointe), Data and Analytics (Parsec Education), and Agriculture (Gridtractor), while 5 of the 11 rows are classified as “Series Unknown” and 1 is “undisclosed” by amount (DTE Materials, 2025-08-26). The round dates span 2021-02-24 to 2025-08-26, with the most recent entry being DTE Materials (2025-08-26).
