Across the 8 most recent funded entries shown, one disclosed round stands out: Forever Oceans raised $68M on 2021-06-24, and it is the only disclosed amount above $50M, dwarfing the rest of the disclosed figures (e.g., Admiral at $19M on 2024-08-21, X-tosis at $3M on 2026-06-23, and MLM Biologics at $2M on 2023-04-04). Most other disclosed rounds cluster at lower single-digit to tens of millions, with at least one additional $19M-level datapoint (Admiral) but no other disclosed round near $50M+.
Geographically, 7 of 8 rows are tied to Gainesville, Florida, while the final row is Gainesville, Virginia (Forever Oceans), creating a clear location outlier. Temporally, the displayed dates run from 2021-06-24 through 2026-06-23, and several entries cluster in 2024 (Grace on 2024-02-20 at $0K, Optym on 2024-01-23 as undisclosed, and Admiral on 2024-08-21 at $19M), while two biotechnology entries (X-tosis in 2026 and MLM Biologics in 2023) bookend the later window. Classification is frequently not specified: 5 of 8 entries list “Series Unknown,” and 2 of 8 list “undisclosed” amounts.

Frequently asked
Which recent disclosed round is the clear outlier in Gainesville, and how does it compare to the next-largest disclosed amount?
Forever Oceans’ $68M disclosed round on 2021-06-24 is the only entry above $50M. The next-largest disclosed amount is Admiral’s $19M on 2024-08-21, which sits well below the $50M+ outlier.
Are there meaningful clusters by city, or is the list spread across multiple Gainesville locations?
7 of 8 rows are explicitly “Gainesville, Florida” (e.g., X-tosis on 2026-06-23 and Admiral on 2024-08-21). The remaining row—Forever Oceans—uses “Gainesville, Virginia” (2021-06-24), making it the geography outlier in this slice.
How concentrated are rounds in the most recent timeframe shown (roughly the last 90 days of the dataset)?
Only one entry falls in the immediate top end of the date range: X-tosis dated 2026-06-23 with $3M. The next most recent rounds are farther back (King Insurance on 2025-04-23 and Admiral on 2024-08-21), indicating limited density at the extreme recent edge.
What sector mix shows up repeatedly, and which sectors appear just once or twice?
Biotechnology appears in 2 of 8 rows (X-tosis on 2026-06-23 for $3M and MLM Biologics on 2023-04-04 for $2M). Other sectors are single appearances within this 8-row view, including Financial Services (King Insurance), Content and Publishing (Admiral), Community and Lifestyle (Grace), Information Technology (Optym), Data and Analytics (Feathr), and Agriculture and Farming (Forever Oceans).
Does the list suggest a stage/amount disclosure pattern that affects how investable the dataset looks?
“Series Unknown” appears in 5 of 8 entries (e.g., X-tosis on 2026-06-23 and Admiral on 2024-08-21). Amounts are also frequently not provided: King Insurance (2025-04-23) and Optym (2024-01-23) are marked “undisclosed,” while Grace (2024-02-20) is shown as $0K.
