Across the 21 most recent Leuven-area entries, the largest disclosed round is Augustine Therapeutics’ $84M (Series A) on 2025-03-24, which dwarfs every other disclosed amount in the list (the next-highest disclosed figures are $32M for miDiagnostics on 2024-12-04 and $25M for MICLEDI Microdisplays on 2024-03-12). At the same time, disclosed funding is clustered in the mid-2024 to mid-2025 window: 2024-10-31 to 2025-07-03 contains 8 of the 21 rows, including multiple multi‑million rounds such as Swave Photonics’ $7M (2025-06-25) and TrustUp’s $5M (2025-01-01).
The list also shows a documentation mix that can affect cross-round comparisons: 6 of 21 entries are explicitly “undisclosed” and 4 of 21 are labeled “Series Unknown” (with Orion Intelligence on 2026-05-19 at $550K and Guardsquare on 2025-07-03 at “undisclosed” as examples). Sector-wise, Artificial Intelligence appears in 4 entries (Orion Intelligence 2026-05-19, NannyML 2025-02-17, xyzt.ai 2023-10-23, DPhi 2022-08-09, plus LynxCare 2022-06-21), indicating a heavier tilt than most other categories.

Frequently asked
What is the largest disclosed round in Leuven here, and is it an outlier versus other disclosed amounts?
Augustine Therapeutics’ $84M (Series A) on 2025-03-24 is the only disclosed round above $50M; the next-largest disclosed amounts are $32M (miDiagnostics on 2024-12-04) and $25M (MICLEDI Microdisplays on 2024-03-12), so the top round materially exceeds the rest.
How concentrated are these financings by date within the 21-row window?
A notable cluster sits between 2024-10-31 and 2025-07-03, spanning 8 of 21 rows (including Paleo 2024-10-31 as “undisclosed,” miDiagnostics 2024-12-04 at $32M, TrustUp 2025-01-01 at $5M, and Swave Photonics 2025-06-25 at $7M). The dataset also edges to 2020-03-11 via THEOplayer at $10M, creating a wide temporal range despite the mid-2024 to mid-2025 concentration.
Which financings are closest to the top of the list (most recent dates), and how many are within the latest quarter shown?
The most recent entry is Orion Intelligence on 2026-05-19 with $550K, followed by Runeasi on 2026-02-04 at $1M and Coil NV on 2025-10-03 at $2M. Within roughly the latest quarter of the shown range (from 2026-02-04 through 2026-05-19), 2 of the 21 rows have disclosed amounts ($1M and $550K).
Does the stage labeling suggest a comparison problem (Series Unknown vs undisclosed amounts)?
There are 6 entries marked “undisclosed” amounts (e.g., Guardsquare on 2025-07-03 and NannyML on 2025-02-17), and 4 entries labeled “Series Unknown” (e.g., Orion Intelligence on 2026-05-19 and Coil NV on 2025-10-03). These classifications limit direct stage-vs-size comparisons because they remove either the amount or the stage for those rows.
Are any sectors over-represented in this Leuven list compared to others?
Artificial Intelligence shows up across 4+ entries: Orion Intelligence (2026-05-19), NannyML (2025-02-17), xyzt.ai (2023-10-23), DPhi (2022-08-09), and LynxCare (2022-06-21), whereas most other sectors appear once or twice (for example, Hardware appears at Swave Photonics 2025-06-25, MICLEDI 2024-03-12, and some manufacturing categories are separated across FixForm/Coil NV/Forcebit).
What are the smallest disclosed rounds here, and do they align with specific stages?
The smallest disclosed amount is Forcebit at $300K (Pre-Seed) on 2024-09-09; the next-smallest disclosed amounts include $550K for Orion Intelligence on 2026-05-19 and $1M for Runeasi on 2026-02-04 and xyzt.ai on 2023-10-23. These low disclosed figures sit alongside multiple multi‑million and large biotech rounds (e.g., miDiagnostics $32M on 2024-12-04 and Augustine Therapeutics $84M on 2025-03-24), making early-stage disclosed sizes an outnumbered set relative to larger later-stage entries.
