Disclosed round sizes in Somerville are dominated by one outlier: Form Energy’s $450M Series E on 2022-10-04, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts (Sunwealth Power’s $290M on 2024-11-25 and LineVision’s $33M on 2022-10-04). Most other disclosed rounds cluster far lower, with several in the $10M–$30M range such as VIA’s $28M (2025-03-18) and SparkCharge’s $16M (2025-05-20).
The 50 most recent rows (2021-08-17 to 2025-11-09) show a dense late-2024 to 2025 cadence: multiple funding events recur across the AI/data/energy-heavy mix, and a sizable share of rounds are not amount-stated ($undisclosed appears with Kula Bio on 2025-11-09 and others, while “Series Unknown” appears alongside many labeled amounts). Sector concentration is visible too: Energy appears repeatedly (e.g., SparkCharge 2025-05-20 $16M; Sunwealth Power 2024-11-25 $290M; Form Energy 2022-10-04 $450M; Mesodyne 2021-11-10 undisclosed), while AI shows frequent entries (e.g., CYVL $14M on 2025-09-29 and Neural Magic $30M on 2021-10-05).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in this Somerville feed, and how separated is it from the rest?
Form Energy’s $450M Series E closed on 2022-10-04, which is dramatically larger than every other disclosed amount in the table. The next-highest disclosed rounds are Sunwealth Power’s $290M (2024-11-25) and then a steep drop to amounts like LineVision’s $33M (2022-10-04) and VIA’s $28M (2025-03-18).
How concentrated are the funding dates toward the most recent part of the period shown?
The feed spans 2021-08-17 (Rendever, Grant, $2M) to 2025-11-09 (Kula Bio, Series A, undisclosed). Many entries stack through 2024-12-18 (Greentown Labs $4M; Generate Biomedicines undisclosed) and keep appearing frequently in 2025 (e.g., CYVL $14M on 2025-09-29 and VIA $28M on 2025-03-18).
Which sectors appear often enough here to look like a real cluster rather than a one-off?
Energy shows up repeatedly, including SparkCharge ($16M on 2025-05-20), Sunwealth Power ($290M on 2024-11-25), Form Energy ($450M on 2022-10-04), and Mesodyne (Pre-Seed, undisclosed on 2021-11-10). Artificial Intelligence (AI) is also prominent with entries like CYVL ($14M on 2025-09-29), VIA ($28M on 2025-03-18), and Neural Magic ($30M on 2021-10-05).
Are there notable “missing data” patterns around disclosed amounts and round labels?
Undisclosed amounts appear multiple times (e.g., Kula Bio on 2025-11-09 and Matterworks on 2025-06-03), limiting size-based comparisons for those deals. Separately, “Series Unknown” is common even when an amount is shown, including Lasso ($7M on 2025-10-13) and Rise Robotics (2025-08-15, $3M).
Which entries are unusually small compared to the dominant disclosed ranges?
Forge’s $30K (2024-09-17) stands out as a low outlier versus the many $10M–$30M rounds such as Glimpse ($10M on 2025-03-05) and NODAR ($12M on 2022-04-12). The next-smallest disclosed amount in the table is Novaurum Biosciences at $310K (2025-03-11), far above Forge’s figure.
Do any rounds share the same date, suggesting simultaneous or related deal activity?
Two pairs share the same round date: LineVision and Form Energy both list 2022-10-04, with disclosed amounts of $33M (LineVision, Series C) and $450M (Form Energy, Series E). In 2025, SparkCharge and Sublime Systems also share 2025-05-20, though the latter’s amount is undisclosed.
