Disclosed funding amounts in this Missouri list are highly uneven: the largest disclosed round is Geneoscopy’s $105M on 2025-01-08, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts (Central States Water Resources at $325M on 2024-12-02 is actually the largest disclosed amount in the rows, dated 2024-12-02; and Wugen at $115M on 2025-08-27 is the next-highest among clearly disclosed entries). In contrast, the smallest disclosed amount shown is $10K for WUWA Textiles LLC (2025-03-18) and CoBuild (2024-07-26), both far below the dominant mid-six-to-eight-figure rounds.
The timing clusters: rounds span 2024-05-01 (nCase Technologies, Pre-Seed, undisclosed) through 2025-11-18 (Juristat, Private Equity, undisclosed). A notable city concentration appears around St Louis and Kansas City placements (e.g., Wugen in St Louis on 2025-08-27; Paytient in Columbia on 2025-06-03; Benefitbay in Kansas City on 2025-08-25), while “Series Unknown” is common, appearing in 24 of the 50 rows; “undisclosed” amounts also recur frequently (24 of 50). Sector-wise, Biotechnology (Wugen 2025-08-27; Geneoscopy $105M 2025-01-08; Panome Bio $6M 2024-11-21; plus multiple others) and Energy (Accelerate Wind, Wugen’s geography aside; Central States Water Resources is Natural Resources; and Black Bayou Energy Hub in 2024-06-06) both recur in multiple entries, suggesting repeated investment attention rather than one-off themes.

Frequently asked
What outlier levels stand out in disclosed funding, and how do they compare to the rest of the Missouri entries?
The top disclosed amount is Central States Water Resources at $325M on 2024-12-02, dwarfing the next-largest disclosed rounds such as Wugen’s $115M (2025-08-27) and Geneoscopy’s $105M (2025-01-08). At the low end, the smallest disclosed amounts are $10K for WUWA Textiles LLC (2025-03-18) and CoBuild (2024-07-26), which sit far below the mid-to-high disclosure range.
Which rounds have the most recent close dates in this list, and are those recent entries disproportionately undisclosed?
The most recent date shown is 2025-11-18 with Juristat (Private Equity, undisclosed). The nearby late-2025 entries mix disclosed and undisclosed amounts—for example EIWA at $730K on 2025-10-14 versus Accelerate Wind on 2025-10-01 and PayRecs on 2025-07-21, both listed with undisclosed amounts.
Is there a clear temporal cluster (e.g., a tight window) among the rounds shown, or are closes spread evenly across the period?
The list spans from 2024-05-01 (nCase Technologies, Pre-Seed, undisclosed) to 2025-11-18 (Juristat, Private Equity, undisclosed), and it concentrates heavily in late 2024 through 2025 rather than one isolated month. Examples include multiple 2025 entries from July–October (Benefitbay 2025-08-25 $5M; Trially 2025-08-21 $5M; Paytient 2025-06-03 $40M) alongside earlier 2024 highs like Central States Water Resources on 2024-12-02 $325M and Gateway Fiber on 2024-12-02 $75M.
Do certain classifications dominate the funding rounds (stage or disclosure level)?
“Series Unknown” is the most frequent stage label, appearing in 24 of 50 rows, while “undisclosed” amounts also appear in 24 of 50 rows. Disclosed stage examples alongside this include Paytient (Series C, $40M on 2025-06-03) and Wugen (Series C, $115M on 2025-08-27), but many recent entries remain amount-undisclosed.
Are any geographies or city clusters more represented than others within Missouri?
The entries repeatedly point to the St Louis area and Kansas City area, with multiple rounds tied to St Louis, Missouri (e.g., Wugen 2025-08-27 $115M; FinLocker 2025-08-08 $1M; Spearhead Bio 2025-07-14 $310K) and several tied to Kansas City, Missouri (e.g., Benefitbay 2025-08-25 $5M; Trially 2025-08-21 $5M; New Outlook 2025-07-17 $110M).
