The disclosed round sizes in Kampala are highly uneven: the largest disclosed amount is East African Development Bank’s $25M on 2026-06-25, which is far above the next-largest disclosed figures in this slice (Uganda Development Bank at $30M on 2025-10-02 and then $10M for Furaha on 2025-01-24). However, the largest disclosed amount overall is actually Uganda Development Bank’s $30M (2025-10-02), and it dwarfs most other disclosed rounds, which cluster around $2M or below (for example, Premier Credit at $2M on 2025-09-18; XENO at $2M on 2022-06-24; Numida Technologies at $2M on 2021-04-13).
Stage and disclosure patterns also concentrate. Of the 16 rows shown, 4 list “undisclosed” amounts (Denebola Technologies on 2025-09-24; Level Africa on 2024-02-19; Inputi on 2022-10-12; Tugende on 2022-06-15), and 9 use “Series Unknown” in the round label (including East African Development Bank on 2026-06-25 and Uganda Development Bank on 2025-10-02). Temporally, the list spans 2021-04-13 (Numida Technologies) through 2026-06-25 (East African Development Bank), with most entries landing in 2022–2025 and a noticeable uptick in dates from mid-September 2025 (Uganda Development Bank $30M on 2025-10-02; Premier Credit $2M on 2025-09-18; Denebola Technologies “undisclosed” on 2025-09-24).

Frequently asked
What stands out in Kampala when comparing the largest disclosed round to the rest of the recent list?
The largest disclosed round shown is Uganda Development Bank at $30M on 2025-10-02; nearly all other disclosed amounts are much smaller, with several at $2M or less (Premier Credit $2M on 2025-09-18; XENO $2M on 2022-06-24; Numida Technologies $2M on 2021-04-13).
How concentrated are rounds in time across the 16 rows, and what’s the newest and oldest disclosed entry date?
The date range runs from 2021-04-13 (Numida Technologies seed, $2M) to 2026-06-25 (East African Development Bank, Series Unknown, $25M). Within that window, multiple rounds cluster in 2022–2025, including a tight sequence in September–October 2025: Uganda Development Bank ($30M on 2025-10-02), Denebola Technologies (“undisclosed” on 2025-09-24), and Premier Credit ($2M on 2025-09-18).
Which disclosure pattern is most common in this Kampala slice—“undisclosed” amounts or “Series Unknown” labels—and how often?
“Series Unknown” appears in 9 of 16 rows (including East African Development Bank on 2026-06-25 and Uganda Development Bank on 2025-10-02), while “undisclosed” amounts appear in 4 of 16 rows (Denebola Technologies 2025-09-24; Level Africa 2024-02-19; Inputi 2022-10-12; Tugende 2022-06-15).
Is the stage mix dominated by early rounds, or do later-stage labels show up frequently?
Early-stage labels are present across many entries (Seed: REXIAL 2024-09-11 $420K; KaCyber Technologies 2022-10-13 $20K; PesaMoni 2022-01-05 $100K; Numida Technologies 2021-04-13 $2M), while later-stage labels are less frequent (Series B: Tugende is listed as Series B but with an “undisclosed” amount on 2022-06-15, and other larger labeled rounds here are still marked as “Series Unknown”).
Are there sector clusters in this Kampala list, or is it broadly distributed?
The dataset is notably finance-heavy: Financial Services appears repeatedly (East African Development Bank on 2026-06-25; Uganda Development Bank 2025-10-02; Furaha 2025-01-24; REXIAL 2024-09-11; Level Africa 2024-02-19; KaCyber Technologies 2022-10-13 is Design not finance; XENO 2022-06-24; Tugende 2022-06-15; plus Premier Credit as FinTech/Finance on 2025-09-18), while Apps and AI show up in fewer rows (PesaMoni 2022-01-05 $100K; Safeboda 2021-12-16 $100K; Denebola Technologies 2025-09-24 is AI within Healthcare).
