Disclosed funding in this Memphis list is heavily concentrated in a single outlier: CopyAI’s $11M Series A (2021-10-14) is the largest disclosed amount, and it sits well above the next-largest disclosed rounds (e.g., CircumFix Solutions at $5M on 2024-10-23; University of Tennessee Health Science Center at $4M on 2022-07-26). At the same time, the majority of entries fall into smaller disclosed ranges, including multiple $10K rounds dated 2023-08-23 (Forever Ready Productions; Goner Records; Grind City Brewing Company; Ideas Unlimited; Kudzukian; Opti-Coat; PerformancePoint; WhatTheDoula).
The dataset spans 27 rows from 2021-06-21 through the most recent 2025-04-03 (Blank Beauty, amount undisclosed). A cluster appears on 2023-08-23, which accounts for eight separate companies. Stage and disclosure are also skewed: 16 of 27 rows are labeled “Series Unknown,” and 3 of 27 rows show “undisclosed” amounts; just one row is explicitly a “Series A” (CopyAI).

Frequently asked
What stands out in the funding sizes for Memphis—and how extreme is the top disclosed round?
CopyAI’s $11M on 2021-10-14 is the largest disclosed amount in the page. It is substantially above the next-highest disclosed amounts shown (CircumFix Solutions at $5M on 2024-10-23; University of Tennessee Health Science Center at $4M on 2022-07-26).
Are there date clusters where many Memphis rounds closed at the same time?
Yes. Eight entries share the exact round date 2023-08-23, each with a $10K disclosed amount across companies including Forever Ready Productions, Goner Records, Grind City Brewing Company, Ideas Unlimited, Kudzukian, Opti-Coat, PerformancePoint, and WhatTheDoula.
How much of this list is dominated by undefined deal stages and undisclosed amounts?
Deal classification is mostly not specified: 16 of 27 rows are “Series Unknown.” Separately, 3 of 27 rows are explicitly “undisclosed” on amount (Blank Beauty on 2025-04-03; Infusion Marketing Group on 2023-12-18; SecondKeys on 2023-06-20).
Which stage label appears in the data alongside the otherwise “Series Unknown” entries?

What does the recent-vs-old temporal edge look like in these 27 Memphis entries?
The most recent round date shown is 2025-04-03 (Blank Beauty, amount undisclosed), while the oldest date shown is 2021-06-21 (Scholars, amount $500K). The timeline therefore spans just under four years, with a notable mid-period spike on 2023-08-23.
