Startups in Newark closed 49 funding rounds over the last 24 months, 27 of them in the last 12 months, and raised $416M in disclosed capital. The median disclosed round is $4.0M, with the middle half of rounds falling between $1.4M and $10M. Artificial Intelligence, Information Technology and Advertising hold the most companies by sector.
Early stage activity dominates this segment. AI and Information Technology firms lead the way, mostly operating with small teams. The heavy concentration of Seed and Pre-Seed companies means these entities are still building core products. Sourcing here focuses on early bets rather than established scale, as the typical company has not yet reached later growth milestones.
