The largest disclosed Series A amount in this set is Adcytherix at $122M on 2025-10-16, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed rounds clustered in the $45M–$52M range (Genomines $45M on 2025-09-15; VELA $45M on 2024-09-24; SiPearl $38M on 2025-07-08; AQEMIA $38M on 2024-12-10).

Geographically, Paris and the Île-de-France region recur heavily: for example, GetVocal AI (Paris) on 2025-11-21 ($26M), Qovery (Paris) on 2025-09-29 ($13M), and multiple additional Île-de-France entries like Spiko (Paris, $22M on 2025-07-17) and Bioptimus (Paris, $41M on 2025-01-14). Temporally, the 50 rows span 2024-09-23 (Jump) through 2025-11-23 (Hummink), with a dense run through mid-to-late 2025 where many disclosed rounds sit between roughly $10M and $30M, and a clear biotech/AI presence across the period (e.g., multiple biotech rounds such as Adcytherix, Genomines, Tafalgie Therapeutics, and Faircraft; and multiple AI rounds such as GetVocal AI, Bioptimus, AQEMIA, and Qevlar AI).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed Series A here, and how extreme is it versus the rest?
Adcytherix’s $122M round on 2025-10-16 is the clear outlier in this list; the next-largest disclosed rounds are well below that, including Genomines at $45M (2025-09-15) and VELA at $45M (2024-09-24).
Which entries cluster in the highest-activity part of the timeline?
Most rounds are concentrated in 2025, spanning from early 2025 (e.g., Formance $21M on 2025-01-29) to the latest entry on 2025-11-23 (Hummink $17M). Several additional large rounds land in the same mid/late-2025 window, including Adcytherix $122M (2025-10-16) and Genomines $45M (2025-09-15).
Is Paris/Île-de-France over-represented compared to other cities in this list?
Yes—Paris and Île-de-France appear repeatedly, including GetVocal AI (Paris) at $26M on 2025-11-21, Qovery (Paris) at $13M on 2025-09-29, and Spiko (Paris) at $22M on 2025-07-17. Outside that geography, you still see meaningful pockets such as Marseille (e.g., Adcytherix $122M on 2025-10-16; Tafalgie Therapeutics $14M on 2025-09-19) and Toulouse (e.g., U-Space $28M on 2025-11-13; Beyond Aero $20M on 2024-10-28).
Do any sectors show up often enough to shape deal coverage?
Biotech appears in multiple entries, including Adcytherix (2025-10-16, $122M), Genomines (2025-09-15, $45M), Tafalgie Therapeutics (2025-09-19, $14M), One Biosciences (2025-07-17, $17M), and Faircraft (2024-11-21, $16M). AI also shows up across the period with rounds like GetVocal AI ($26M on 2025-11-21), Bioptimus ($41M on 2025-01-14), AQEMIA ($38M on 2024-12-10), and Qevlar AI ($10M on 2025-04-08).
Are there notable low-end or ‘missing amount’ outliers worth flagging for underwriting?
The smallest disclosed amount is ORIS at $4M on 2025-09-15. Separately, Stern Tech is the only row with an undisclosed amount (Series A on 2025-02-01), which can break amount-based comparisons against the rest of the disclosed rounds.
How large are the ‘typical’ disclosed rounds, based on the mid-range entries around them?
Beyond the Adcytherix outlier ($122M on 2025-10-16), many disclosed rounds cluster in the roughly $10M–$30M band—for example Aive ($5M on 2025-11-17 sits below that band), while GetVocal AI ($26M on 2025-11-21), Hypr Space ($24M on 2025-11-20), Upciti ($20M on 2025-10-14), and RockFi ($20M on 2025-03-24) sit inside it.
