Reading shows a clear outlier in disclosed deal size: Oxford Quantum Circuits closed a $100M Series B on 2023-11-27, which sits far above the rest of the disclosed rounds in this slice (the next-highest disclosed amount is $10M from Device Authority on 2024-02-07; several other disclosed amounts are in the $2M–$6M band). Sector and stage patterns are also noticeable. Consumer Electronics appears repeatedly (Device Authority $9M on 2024-02-07; Horizon Technologies $2M on 2023-10-11; Altitude Angel $6M on 2023-01-03; plus Oxford Quantum Circuits is Hardware), and “Series Unknown” is frequent: 8 of 17 rows list Series Unknown, with one additional row marked undisclosed.
Temporally, the 17 rounds span 2021-01-25 (Solarflux Energy Technologies, Grant, $300K in Reading, Pennsylvania) through 2025-07-22 (ALL.SPACE, Series Unknown, $4M). There is also clustering in 2024, where three disclosed rounds appear between 2024-02-07 ($9M) and 2024-10-23 ($5M), alongside several “Series Unknown” entries in mid-to-late 2024.

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in Reading in this list, and is it an outlier versus the rest of the disclosed amounts?
Oxford Quantum Circuits’ $100M Series B on 2023-11-27 is the only disclosed round here above $50M, and it dwarfs the next-highest disclosed amount: $10M from Device Authority on 2024-02-07.
Do the recent deals cluster into a tight date window in this 17-row slice?
