In the 28 most recent Galway-area funding rounds shown, Vivasure Medical’s disclosed $32M (Series D) on 2023-03-13 stands out: it is the only disclosed round well above the cluster of $7M–$21M deals (e.g., Luminate Medical $21M on 2026-01-07; NUA Surgical $7M on 2024-12-06; Ceroflo $7M on 2024-02-04). Sector-wise, health care dominates, with 10 of 28 entries labeled “Health Care,” and biotech is also frequent (5 of 28 entries labeled “Biotechnology”).
The list’s geography is largely centered on Galway, with most entries simply “Galway, Ireland” and two explicitly “Galway, Galway, Ireland” (Bluedrop Medical on 2026-02-02; Rockfield Medical Devices on 2025-12-08), while at least two more include the broader Galway label (e.g., Konree Innovation on 2025-11-04). Temporally, rounds span from 2021-05-17 (spaceOS) to 2026-02-02 (Bluedrop Medical), and multiple larger-health-care rounds appear in the newer window (2024-02-01 to 2024-12-06).

Frequently asked
Which disclosed round is the main outlier, and how does it compare to the next-largest disclosed amounts?
Vivasure Medical’s disclosed $32M on 2023-03-13 is the clearest outlier in the disclosed amounts, materially above the next-largest disclosed deal of $21M (Luminate Medical on 2026-01-07), and above the $20M Atlantic Therapeutics round on 2022-01-20.
How concentrated are rounds by time in this Galway set, especially around 2024 and early 2026?
There’s a dense sequence of mid-to-late 2024 deals: multiple entries land between 2024-02-01 (CitySwift at $8M) and 2024-12-06 (NUA Surgical at $7M). In the newest entries, two of the top disclosed amounts appear in January–February 2026—Bluedrop Medical’s $1M on 2026-02-02 alongside Luminate Medical’s $21M on 2026-01-07.
Are any sectors over-represented relative to others in these 28 rows?
Yes. “Health Care” appears 10 times out of 28 (e.g., NUA Surgical $7M on 2024-12-06; Tympany Medical $4M on 2021-11-22; SymPhysis Medical $2M on 2024-10-07), and “Biotechnology” appears 5 times out of 28 (e.g., Luminate Medical $21M on 2026-01-07; Vivasure Medical $32M on 2023-03-13).
What do the stage classifications suggest—does “Series Unknown” or “undisclosed” amounts meaningfully affect the picture?
Series/amount clarity is limited: there are 9 rows marked “Series Unknown” (e.g., FeelTect on 2025-12-08 at $7M; Siren on 2025-12-02 with undisclosed), plus 3 rows with “undisclosed” amounts (Siren on 2025-12-02; Konree Innovation on 2025-11-04; Xtremedy Medical on 2023-05-29). Among disclosed rounds, the largest amounts cluster in Health Care/Biotech rather than later-stage labels like Series D, which is represented by Vivasure Medical ($32M on 2023-03-13).
Which city/location pattern appears most, and are there notable within-city variations?
Most entries use the broad label “Galway, Ireland,” but two are explicitly “Galway, Galway, Ireland” (Bluedrop Medical on 2026-02-02 at $1M; Rockfield Medical Devices on 2025-12-08 at $4M). One explicitly matches “Galway, Galway, Ireland” for a biotech seed as well (Konree Innovation on 2025-11-04, undisclosed), while others omit the nested “Galway, Galway” structure even when the company is still in Galway.
