Geographically, three of the five startups list Fukuoka, Fukuoka, Japan (Welmo, Kyulux, Tensor Energy), while the remaining two are broader “Fukuoka, Japan” or “Fukuoka, Japan” style entries (Nose ID; Seki Furniture). The stage mix is heavily opaque: 3 of 5 rows are “undisclosed” amounts (Kyulux, Nose ID, Seki Furniture), and the remaining two disclosed rounds both fall in non-unknown stages (Welmo’s Series Unknown at $4M, Tensor Energy’s Series A at $6M).

Frequently asked
Which recently funded Fukuoka startup has the largest disclosed round, and how does it compare to the other disclosed amount?
Tensor Energy’s $6M (Series A) closed on 2026-04-02 is the largest disclosed amount in the list; the next-largest disclosed figure is Welmo’s $4M (Series Unknown) on 2026-06-18. The remaining three entries (Kyulux on 2026-05-20, Nose ID on 2025-11-06, Seki Furniture on 2025-09-16) have undisclosed amounts.
Do the round dates cluster tightly, or are they spread across the year?
They cluster across roughly nine months: earliest is Seki Furniture on 2025-09-16 and latest is Welmo on 2026-06-18. Three rounds fall in the later half of the window—Tensor Energy (2026-04-02), Kyulux (2026-05-20), and Welmo (2026-06-18).
Is there a city-level concentration within “Fukuoka” listings?
Yes. Welmo, Kyulux, and Tensor Energy all list “Fukuoka, Fukuoka, Japan,” while Nose ID and Seki Furniture list “Fukuoka, Japan,” suggesting more clustered granularity for the three companies sharing the same city+prefecture label.
What does the stage and disclosed-amount pattern look like across these five entries?
Three of five rows show “undisclosed” amounts (Kyulux, Nose ID, Seki Furniture), leaving only two disclosed dollar figures: $4M for Welmo (dated 2026-06-18) and $6M for Tensor Energy (dated 2026-04-02). Stage labels also vary, with Tensor Energy explicitly listed as Series A, while Welmo is marked “Series Unknown.”
Are there sector concentrations, or are these rounds spread across unrelated themes?
Sectors are spread rather than concentrated: Hardware (Kyulux), Energy (Tensor Energy), Artificial Intelligence (Welmo), Pets/Mobile/Consumer Goods (Nose ID), and Retail (Seki Furniture). No sector repeats across 3+ entries within the five-row sample.
