Among the 13 most recent information-technology rounds listed for Dubai, the largest disclosed amount is Hunch’s $23M (2024-03-06). That figure dwarfs the next-largest disclosed round: 4Partners at $4M (2024-10-10) and RIZEK at $4M (2020-06-14), while most other disclosed rounds sit between $100K and $9M (e.g., spiderSilk $9M on 2023-11-01; 37xDubai $5M on 2022-12-13).
Temporal concentration is noticeable: 4Partners ($4M, 2024-10-10), Hunch ($23M, 2024-03-06), and spiderSilk ($9M, 2023-11-01) account for the top of the list, and the bulk of disclosed amounts cluster in 2021–2023 (e.g., RIZEK $4M on 2020-06-14 at the low end). Stage and disclosure are also mixed: 5 of 13 entries have “Series Unknown” or a blank classification (Hunch’s round is blank on 2024-03-06; 4Partners is “Series Unknown” on 2024-10-10; spiderSilk is “Series Unknown” on 2023-11-01; NexGen Digitech is “Series Unknown” on 2023-06-01; RIZEK is blank on 2020-06-14), and 2 of 13 entries are “undisclosed” on amount (Mobility MEA on 2023-03-30; 99Starz on 2021-11-17). The oldest date shown is 2020-06-14 (RIZEK).

Frequently asked
What stands out as the largest disclosed round in this Dubai IT list, and how does it compare to the rest of the disclosed amounts?
Hunch’s $23M on 2024-03-06 is the only disclosed round above $20M. The next-largest disclosed amounts are $9M (spiderSilk on 2023-11-01) and then a tie at $4M (4Partners on 2024-10-10 and RIZEK on 2020-06-14), so Hunch meaningfully exceeds the rest of the disclosed range.
Are there any notable outliers on the low end of disclosed funding?
The smallest disclosed amount is Yegertek’s $100K on 2021-09-14. Several entries cluster above that floor (for example, Sterve at $500K on 2023-01-16 and Flashy at $400K on 2022-03-21), making $100K a clear low-end outlier among disclosed rounds.
How concentrated are these rounds in time, based on the most recent and oldest dates shown?
The shown round dates span from 2020-06-14 (RIZEK) to 2024-10-10 (4Partners). The top of the list is led by 2024 (4Partners $4M on 2024-10-10; Hunch $23M on 2024-03-06) and 2023 (spiderSilk $9M on 2023-11-01; FileOrbis $2M on 2023-06-01), indicating a heavier recent presence within 2021–2023 for most entries.
What stage classifications repeat, and how often is the stage not specified?
Seed appears multiple times (FileOrbis $2M on 2023-06-01; 37xDubai $5M on 2022-12-13; NexGen Digitech is not Seed; FlexxPay $3M on 2021-02-14; Yegertek $100K on 2021-09-14; plus 99Starz is Seed but amount is undisclosed on 2021-11-17). “Series Unknown” or blank is common: 5 of 13 entries have either “Series Unknown” or an empty stage field (4Partners, spiderSilk, NexGen Digitech, Hunch, and RIZEK).
Which entries are cases where the amount is undisclosed, and does that affect the ability to spot size clusters?
Two entries list “undisclosed” amounts: Mobility MEA (2023-03-30) and 99Starz (2021-11-17). Because the rest of the disclosed rounds include sizes like $9M (spiderSilk on 2023-11-01) and $500K (Sterve on 2023-01-16), these two undisclosed points create gaps in identifying whether there are additional large or very small outliers beyond the disclosed extremes (Hunch $23M and Yegertek $100K).
