Across the 50 most recent Leeds-area entries, the largest disclosed round is Atome Energy’s $245M (2026-04-23), which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts (e.g., $61M for Reward Finance Group on 2023-10-24, $25M for Eddisons on 2024-04-09, and $25M for ARC Inspirations on 2022-04-13). At the other end of the disclosed range, the smallest disclosed amount is Curtiss Motorcycle Company’s $20K (2024-01-03, listed as Leeds, Alabama, United States), creating a wide spread from venture-scale to micro-sized checks.
The list also clusters in time and geography: entries span 2021-04-13 (SatSense) through 2026-06-03 (Iliad Solutions), and many of the newest rounds are concentrated in 2026 (e.g., $1M on 2026-06-03, $3M on 2026-05-21, and $2M on 2026-05-12). Sector presence is dominated by “Series Unknown” and “undisclosed” amounts rather than disclosed stage/size (five entries are explicitly “undisclosed” and many more use “Series Unknown”), while the geography is primarily Leeds, United Kingdom with one clear non-UK exception (Curtiss Motorcycle Company in Leeds, Alabama).

Frequently asked
What’s the biggest disclosed round in this Leeds list, and how extreme is it versus the rest of the disclosed amounts?
Atome Energy’s $245M on 2026-04-23 is the top disclosed amount. It stands well above the next-largest disclosed figures in the table—$61M (Reward Finance Group, 2023-10-24), and two $25M rounds (Eddisons, 2024-04-09; ARC Inspirations, 2022-04-13).
Do the most recent entries cluster into a specific date window, or are they evenly distributed across years?
They cluster heavily toward the latest months: in 2026 alone, there are multiple rounds including $1M on 2026-06-03 (Iliad Solutions), $3M on 2026-05-21 (Screen Alliance North), and $2M on 2026-05-12 (Envoke). The overall span runs from 2021-04-13 (SatSense) through 2026-06-03 (Iliad Solutions), but the densest recency is concentrated at the top of the table.
Which city pattern stands out—does the list stay in Leeds, UK, or include other geographies?
Most entries list Leeds, United Kingdom (e.g., Iliad Solutions on 2026-06-03 and Atome Energy on 2026-04-23). The main outlier is Curtiss Motorcycle Company, which is listed as Leeds, Alabama, United States (2024-01-03, $20K), while the rest remain in Leeds, UK.
How often are round amounts disclosed versus marked undisclosed, and does that affect identifying the “largest” or “smallest” rounds?
Five entries show an explicitly “undisclosed” amount (e.g., North Star Coffee Roasters on 2026-05-20; HyperFinity on 2025-04-16; and My Meno on 2024-10-04). Because of those gaps, comparisons like “largest” and “smallest” are based on disclosed amounts only—Atome Energy at $245M (2026-04-23) is the largest disclosed, while the smallest disclosed is $20K for Curtiss Motorcycle Company (2024-01-03).
Is there a stage/label concentration here, or is it mixed?
The stage mix is dominated by “Series Unknown” and also includes multiple explicit early-stage labels; for example, Seed appears on Envoke ($2M on 2026-05-12), Plato ($350K on 2026-02-24), and WAC ($650K on 2025-04-01). Still, many of the biggest disclosed rounds are under “Series Unknown,” including Atome Energy ($245M, 2026-04-23) and Reward Finance Group ($61M, 2023-10-24).
Are there notable outliers besides sheer size, such as very small checks or sector extremes?
Beyond size, the smallest disclosed entry is Curtiss Motorcycle Company at $20K on 2024-01-03 in Motor Vehicle Manufacturing, which sits far from the upper tier (Atome Energy’s $245M on 2026-04-23). Sector-wise, Energy is represented with at least two large, disclosed rounds—Atome Energy ($245M, 2026-04-23) and 1Energy ($24M, 2025-10-28)—while multiple AI entries exist but are mostly in much smaller disclosed bands (e.g., AUDITSU $270K on 2025-12-03; PinPoint Data Science $1M on 2022-02-06).
