Disclosed funding in this set is dominated by one outlier: ACT Entertainment’s $117M round (hardware) on 2024-04-10, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amount of $7M at Nitrase Therapeutics on 2021-11-02. Most other disclosed rounds cluster far below that peak, with several entries at $500K (Campusknot Inc., 2024-09-12) and $750K (EdgeTheory, 2023-09-22), plus multiple $100K–$300K amounts (e.g., BidMoni $130K on 2024-04-01; WISPR Systems $300K on 2024-03-05; Answers Analytics $100K on 2022-02-01).
Date-wise, rounds span 2021-04-08 (DaisNotes) through 2025-06-03 (Grand Bank), with a concentration in 2023–2024. Stage information is often missing or unspecified: 5 of 17 rows list “Series Unknown” and 2 of 17 are “undisclosed,” while the remaining rows include Seed (Campusknot Inc.; Glanris), Angel (DaisNotes), Series A (Nitrase Therapeutics), and debt/private equity (Answers Analytics; Drake Waterfowl Systems). Geographically, the only repeated city in this slice is Starkville (Hand Technologies on 2024-11-20 and Campusknot Inc. on 2024-09-12), suggesting localized repeat activity rather than a single statewide hub.

Frequently asked
Which Mississippi round is the clearest outlier by disclosed size, and how does it compare to the rest of the page’s disclosed amounts?
ACT Entertainment’s $117M (2024-04-10) is the largest disclosed round in this set, far above the next-largest disclosed amount of $7M (Nitrase Therapeutics, 2021-11-02). The majority of other disclosed rounds sit in much smaller bands such as $100K–$300K (e.g., United States Marine $240K on 2023-05-03; WISPR Systems $300K on 2024-03-05).
Do the most recent rounds cluster into a narrow time window, or are they spread evenly across years?
They are more clustered toward the middle of the timeline: multiple rounds fall in 2024 (e.g., Grand Bank 2025-06-03 is the newest, but 2024 includes Hand Technologies 2024-11-20, Campusknot Inc. 2024-09-12, ACT Entertainment 2024-04-10, and BidMoni 2024-04-01). The earliest in the displayed set is DaisNotes on 2021-04-08, indicating a 2021–2025 span rather than a tight single quarter cluster.
Are any cities or locations over-represented among these 17 rows?
Starkville is the only city that repeats in the shown list: Hand Technologies (Starkville) closed 2024-11-20 and Campusknot Inc. (Starkville) closed 2024-09-12. Most other entries are single occurrences by city, such as Jackson (ACT Entertainment 2024-04-10) and Olive Branch (Glanris 2022-12-08; Drake Waterfowl Systems 2021-09-22).
How often is stage disclosed versus missing or unspecified?
Stage details are frequently incomplete: 5 of 17 rows show “Series Unknown” (e.g., Grand Bank on 2025-06-03; Croptell on 2023-11-13), and 2 of 17 are “undisclosed” amounts (Grand Bank and Trilogy Healthcare, 2024-01-23). Named stages still appear, including Seed (Campusknot Inc., 2024-09-12; Glanris, 2022-12-08) and Series A (Nitrase Therapeutics, 2021-11-02).
What sector patterns stand out, and is there a dominant sector in this slice?
No single sector dominates the list of 17 rows, but Agriculture and Farming appears more than once (Croptell, 2023-11-13 at $250K; Glanris, 2022-12-08 with undisclosed amount). Outside that, the highest disclosed funding in this slice comes from Hardware (ACT Entertainment’s $117M on 2024-04-10), while other sectors generally sit below that peak (e.g., AI at EdgeTheory $750K on 2023-09-22).
Which entries closed most recently and are any of them missing disclosed amounts?
The newest row is Grand Bank on 2025-06-03, and its amount is “undisclosed.” The next-most-recent entries include Hand Technologies on 2024-11-20 ($250K) and Campusknot Inc. on 2024-09-12 ($500K), indicating that the very latest item is the one with no disclosed funding amount in this view.
