Frequently asked
What is the largest disclosed round in this Northbrook set, and how does it compare to the next-highest disclosed amounts?
Bridge to Life Ltd. posted the largest disclosed amount at $56M on 2021-08-19, which materially exceeds the next-largest disclosed figure of $30M from On Target Laboratories on 2023-11-16; other disclosed rounds shown include $21M (2021-03-24), $20M (2024-11-14), and $10M (2023-10-04).
Do the rounds cluster in a narrow date window, or are they evenly spread across the period shown?
They skew toward the early-to-mid 2020s rather than being evenly spread: 4 of the 7 rows fall between 2021-03-24 and 2023-11-16 (On Target Laboratories $21M on 2021-03-24; Bridge to Life Ltd. $56M on 2021-08-19; Swag Golf $10M on 2023-10-04; On Target Laboratories $30M on 2023-11-16). A later cluster appears in late 2024–2025 with Homethrive on 2024-11-14 ($20M) and Hunger Resource Network on 2025-03-18 (undisclosed).
Which sectors are over-represented in this list?
Biotechnology is the main concentration with 3 of 7 entries: On Target Laboratories (2021-03-24 for $21M and 2023-11-16 for $30M) and Bridge to Life Ltd. (2021-08-19 for $56M). Other sectors appear only once each in the shown rows: Community and Lifestyle (Hunger Resource Network), Health Care (Homethrive), Commerce and Shopping (Swag Golf), and Media and Entertainment (Spark Hire).
How much of the list is missing disclosed amount or deal-stage detail?
Two entries are marked “undisclosed” for the amount: Hunger Resource Network (2025-03-18) and Spark Hire (2022-05-05, Private Equity). For stage naming, “Series Unknown” appears in 4 of 7 rows (Hunger Resource Network 2025-03-18; Homethrive 2024-11-14; Spark Hire 2022-05-05; and Bridge to Life Ltd. labeled “Venture - Series Unknown” on 2021-08-19).
Are there outliers besides the largest disclosed amount that stand out by stage label or missing disclosure?
Yes: the undisclosed-amount entries (Hunger Resource Network on 2025-03-18 and Spark Hire on 2022-05-05) prevent a like-for-like comparison with the disclosed amounts. Stage-wise, Spark Hire is the only row labeled “Private Equity” (2022-05-05, amount undisclosed), while the rest are labeled with “Series” variants or “Series Unknown” (e.g., Swag Golf is “Series A” on 2023-10-04 for $10M).
