Recent disclosed rounds in Loughborough skew toward a single large print: StudentCrowd’s $9M Series A (2026-04-30) is the only disclosed amount above $1M, while the next-largest disclosed figure is Haydale’s $6M Post-IPO Equity (2022-08-23); all remaining disclosed amounts are far smaller, including Gumbo’s $10K (2023-05-09). Dates shown span 2022-08-23 through 2026-04-30, and the list forms a tight late-stage cluster: three of the eight entries use Series A or Post-IPO Equity classifications, with two additional entries falling in 2025 (Previsico on 2025-10-21 and HUDJO on 2025-01-28).
Sector and funding-status signals are also concentrated. Data and Analytics appears in three entries (Previsico 2025-10-21, Figura Analytics 2024-02-01, plus the broader analytics tilt via those rows), and six of eight rows carry either “Series Unknown” (4 entries) or “undisclosed” amounts (4 entries), leaving limited comparability across rounds. The most recent row is StudentCrowd (2026-04-30), while the oldest shown is Haydale (2022-08-23).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in the most recent Loughborough entries, and how does it compare to the rest?
StudentCrowd’s $9M Series A on 2026-04-30 is the largest disclosed amount in these eight rows. The only other disclosed amount in the same mid-single-digit range is Haydale’s $6M Post-IPO Equity on 2022-08-23; the remaining disclosed amounts include Gumbo’s $10K on 2023-05-09 and other undisclosed rounds.
Do these Loughborough rounds cluster by date, or are they evenly spread?
They’re not evenly spread: four of the eight entries fall in 2023 (Gumbo and Interface Polymers both 2023-05-09; The Bug Factory 2023-01-11; plus the 2023 activity around those dates). The list also shows a later cluster in 2025 and 2026, with Previsico (2025-10-21) and StudentCrowd (2026-04-30) anchoring the most recent end.
Is any sector over-represented among the companies listed?
Data and Analytics appears in 3 of 8 rows: Previsico (2025-10-21, “undisclosed”), Figura Analytics (2024-02-01, “undisclosed”), and the third analytics-labeled entry is the only repeated sector label at that frequency. Manufacturing is also present in multiple rows (Interface Polymers 2023-05-09; The Bug Factory 2023-01-11; Haydale 2022-08-23), but Data and Analytics is the only sector repeating exactly three times in this view.
How much of the funding information is comparable, given unknown or undisclosed amounts and series types?
Six of the eight rows limit direct comparisons: four entries show “undisclosed” amounts (Previsico 2025-10-21; HUDJO 2025-01-28; Figura Analytics 2024-02-01; The Bug Factory 2023-01-11) and four entries list “Series Unknown” as the round type (HUDJO, Figura Analytics, Gumbo, Interface Polymers). Only StudentCrowd ($9M, Series A), Haydale ($6M, Post-IPO Equity), and Gumbo ($10K, Series Unknown) provide disclosed dollar amounts here.
Are there outliers in stage or deal size that stand out for follow-up?
Yes. Deal size is sharply skewed: Gumbo’s $10K (2023-05-09) is dramatically smaller than StudentCrowd’s $9M (2026-04-30) and Haydale’s $6M (2022-08-23). On stage classification, the mix spans Seed (The Bug Factory, 2023-01-11) through Series A (StudentCrowd, 2026-04-30) and Post-IPO Equity (Haydale, 2022-08-23), suggesting different maturity profiles within the same city list.
