Disclosed-round sizes in this Richmond-focused feed are dominated by a single outlier: BioAge Labs’ $170M Series D closed on 2024-02-13, far above the next-largest disclosed amounts (Kardium’s $249M on 2025-07-02 is even larger, making it the top disclosed round; the rest cluster mostly in the $1M–$55M range such as Richmond National’s $55M on 2025-03-25 and UZURV’s $35M on 2024-02-14). The data also shows a temporal clustering: many rounds fall in mid-2024, including July 2024 entries like Maple Materials’ $6M (2024-08-13), Saltworks Technologies’ $4M (2024-07-11), and others, while the overall window spans from 2023-06-20 to 2025-10-29 (most recent: TAG Towers, 2025-10-29, undisclosed). Sector coverage is fragmented, but Financial Services appears repeatedly (Richmond National at $55M on 2025-03-25; Humanitru $3M on 2025-02-26; InRev $4M on 2025-01-19; CSC Leasing $50M on 2023-09-15; Tuckahoe Holdings $50M on 2023-08-15). On disclosure patterns, 7 of 50 rows are “undisclosed” and an additional 2 rows have no amount stated (blank), with “Series Unknown” also common (24 of 50 rows).

Frequently asked
What are the biggest disclosed rounds in this Richmond list, and how extreme is the gap?
The largest disclosed amount is Kardium’s $249M (2025-07-02). The next-largest disclosed figures in the visible rows include BioAge Labs’ $170M (2024-02-13) and Richmond National’s $55M (2025-03-25), while many other disclosed rounds sit at $6M, $4M, or around the $1M–$30M band (e.g., Cupron $4M on 2025-03-26; Qnovia $14M on 2024-11-12).
Which months/periods look most clustered, based on the round dates shown?
There is a clear mid-2024 concentration: multiple disclosed rounds land in March–August 2024, including X-Therma $22M (2024-03-13), BioAge Labs $170M (2024-02-13), Saltworks Technologies $4M (2024-07-11), and Maxterial $8M (2024-06-20). The list spans from 2023-06-20 (Startup Virginia, $100K) to 2025-10-29 (TAG Towers, undisclosed), so the bulk of activity is not evenly distributed across the full window.
Are there sectors that show up unusually often compared to others?
Financial Services is one of the more repeated categories, appearing in five entries: Richmond National ($55M, 2025-03-25), Humanitru ($3M, 2025-02-26), InRev ($4M, 2025-01-19), CSC Leasing ($50M, 2023-09-15), and Tuckahoe Holdings ($50M, 2023-08-15). Other sectors (like Energy, Health Care/Biotech, and AI/Software) appear but typically only a couple of times in the visible set.
What stage mix dominates, and how much of the list lacks stage clarity?
“Series Unknown” is the most common classification, with 24 of 50 rows labeled that way, such as Fringe (2024-09-23, $6M) and WRANGLD (2023-08-21, undisclosed). Seed also appears multiple times (e.g., InRev $4M on 2025-01-19; At Home Harmony $3M on 2024-11-15; Warehowz $2M on 2023-09-15), while explicitly named later stages like Series D (BioAge Labs $170M on 2024-02-13) are rare.
Are there notable disclosure outliers or missing-amount patterns that affect comparisons?
Seven rows are explicitly “undisclosed” (including TAG Towers 2025-10-29 and Enzinc 2025-08-26), which means they can’t be compared to disclosed amounts. Two additional rows have a blank amount field (SeedMetrics on 2024-03-20 and X-Therma on 2024-03-13 shows $22M, but the blank pattern itself is present at least twice), so the disclosed-size distribution is based on the subset with numeric amounts.
Do any geographies besides Virginia’s Richmond appear repeatedly under the same city label?
This feed is not limited to Richmond, Virginia: there are multiple “Richmond, British Columbia, Canada” entries (e.g., Kardium $249M on 2025-07-02; Ideon Technologies $2M on 2024-10-11; Easylii $2M on 2024-01-01) and additional non-Virginia Richmonds like Richmond, California (Enzinc, undisclosed on 2025-08-26; BioAge Labs $170M on 2024-02-13) and Richmond, Australia (NexusMD.ai $4M on 2025-06-24; ReadiiTel $2M on 2023-07-30). That makes “Richmond” a multi-country label here rather than a single metro concentration.
