Across the 7 most recent funded entries shown for Germantown, the largest disclosed round is Senseonics’ $80M on 2026-04-30, and it sits far above the next-largest disclosed amount (Virtual Benefits Administrator’s $156M on 2023-08-15 is the largest disclosed overall, while $80M is still among the top two disclosed figures). The list also concentrates by geography: 5 of 7 entries are labeled “Germantown, Maryland” (Whisker Labs on 2026-05-06; Senseonics on 2026-04-30; Seraxis on 2025-05-13; Precigen on 2024-12-27; Palisade Bio on 2022-05-06), while the remaining 2 are “Germantown, Wisconsin” (Innovative Motion Technologies on 2026-05-18; Virtual Benefits Administrator on 2023-08-15). Sector-wise, Biotechnology is the most represented category, appearing 4 of 7 times (Senseonics, Seraxis, Precigen, Palisade Bio), and “Series Unknown” plus “undisclosed” makes up most of the stage clarity (5 of 7 entries have either “Series Unknown” or an undisclosed amount). Temporally, rounds span from 2022-05-06 (Palisade Bio) to 2026-05-18 (Innovative Motion Technologies), with a tight cluster in late spring 2026 (2026-04-30 through 2026-05-18).

Frequently asked
What stands out in disclosed funding sizes, and is there a clear outlier?
Virtual Benefits Administrator’s $156M disclosed round on 2023-08-15 is the largest disclosed amount in the set, while the next-largest disclosed figure is Senseonics’ $80M on 2026-04-30. Several other disclosed amounts are clustered much lower ($79M Precigen on 2024-12-27; $7M Whisker Labs on 2026-05-06; $2M Palisade Bio on 2022-05-06), making the $156M entry the main size outlier.
How concentrated is this list by city label, given the same “Germantown” naming?
The geography split is clean: 5 of 7 entries are “Germantown, Maryland” (Whisker Labs 2026-05-06; Senseonics 2026-04-30; Seraxis 2025-05-13; Precigen 2024-12-27; Palisade Bio 2022-05-06), while 2 of 7 are “Germantown, Wisconsin” (Innovative Motion Technologies 2026-05-18; Virtual Benefits Administrator 2023-08-15). The largest disclosed amount ($156M by Virtual Benefits Administrator) belongs to the Wisconsin-labeled subgroup.
Which sectors dominate, and do they align with the disclosed largest rounds?
Biotechnology appears 4 of 7 times (Senseonics 2026-04-30 $80M; Seraxis 2025-05-13 undisclosed; Precigen 2024-12-27 $79M; Palisade Bio 2022-05-06 $2M). Financial Services (Virtual Benefits Administrator, $156M on 2023-08-15) is the other major contributor by disclosed size, whereas Consumer Electronics appears 2 of 7 times (Whisker Labs $7M on 2026-05-06; Innovative Motion Technologies undisclosed on 2026-05-18).
How much of the list lacks disclosed amounts or clearly stated round types?
Stage/amount transparency is limited: 2 of 7 entries are “undisclosed” by amount (Innovative Motion Technologies 2026-05-18; Seraxis 2025-05-13), and 3 of 7 are labeled “Series Unknown” (Innovative Motion Technologies 2026-05-18; Senseonics 2026-04-30; Seraxis 2025-05-13; Precigen 2024-12-27; that makes 5 of 7 entries that are either “Series Unknown” or undisclosed in amount). Only Whisker Labs (Series D, $7M on 2026-05-06) and Virtual Benefits Administrator (Series Unknown, $156M on 2023-08-15) provide a clearly specified/partially specified round type field with a disclosed amount, alongside Palisade Bio (Post-IPO Equity, $2M on 2022-05-06).
What does the timing look like—are there recent clusters in the newest months?
Yes. The most recent 3 dated entries fall within 18 days in spring 2026 (Innovative Motion Technologies 2026-05-18; Whisker Labs 2026-05-06 $7M; Senseonics 2026-04-30 $80M). Overall coverage runs from 2022-05-06 (Palisade Bio $2M) to 2026-05-18, but the density increases markedly near the latest dates shown.
