The largest disclosed round in the Taiwan set is Wolley’s $3M (2025-11-09), and it doesn’t stand alone: the other disclosed amounts cluster tightly between $3M and $5M, with only two higher-ticket disclosures ($17M on 2020-08-19 for iKala and $17M on 2020-02-25 for CoolBitX). That creates a clear outlier pattern across time rather than within the most recent cluster.
Geographically, the list concentrates in Taipei/Hsinchu: 4 of 7 companies are based in Taipei (CreatorDB 2025-09-21 $5M; PopChill 2025-09-17 $3M; CakeResume 2020-08-10 $900K; CoolBitX 2020-02-25 $17M) and 2 of 7 in Hsinchu (Wolley 2025-11-09 $3M; Anivance AI Corporation 2025-11-07 $4M). Temporally, rounds span 2020-02-25 through 2025-11-09, with 4 of 7 appearing in September–November 2025 (2025-09-17, 2025-09-21, 2025-11-07, 2025-11-09). Stage labels are mixed, with 3 of 7 entries showing a blank/unknown stage; sectors with repeated presence include AI (CreatorDB, PopChill, iKala) and Financial Services/Fintech-adjacent (CoolBitX plus iKala’s AI focus).

Frequently asked
Which disclosed round is largest in the Taiwan list, and how does it compare to the rest of the disclosed amounts?
Wolley’s $3M (2025-11-09) is the largest disclosed amount among the rows that are in the 2025 set, but earlier rounds include much larger disclosures: iKala’s $17M (2020-08-19) and CoolBitX’s $17M (2020-02-25) are the top values in the full 7-row view.
Do the most recent rounds cluster in a narrow window rather than spreading evenly?
Yes. 4 of 7 rows fall within September–November 2025: PopChill ($3M on 2025-09-17), CreatorDB ($5M on 2025-09-21), Anivance AI Corporation ($4M on 2025-11-07), and Wolley ($3M on 2025-11-09). The remaining 3 entries are from 2020 (02-25, 08-10, 08-19).
Are any cities over-represented, and do they align with the most recent closings?
Taipei appears 4 times (CreatorDB 2025-09-21 $5M; PopChill 2025-09-17 $3M; CakeResume 2020-08-10 $900K; CoolBitX 2020-02-25 $17M), while Hsinchu appears 2 times (Wolley 2025-11-09 $3M; Anivance AI Corporation 2025-11-07 $4M). The newest rounds in September–November 2025 split between Taipei (two) and Hsinchu (two).
What does the stage mix look like, and is there an unknown/blank pattern?
Stage labels are not consistent: 3 of 7 entries have a blank/unspecified stage (iKala 2020-08-19 $17M; CakeResume 2020-08-10 $900K; CoolBitX 2020-02-25 $17M). Among labeled rounds in the most recent cluster, Series A appears twice in 2025 (CreatorDB and PopChill), and Seed appears once (Anivance AI Corporation).
Are there sector clusters or notable sector outliers in this 7-company slice?
AI shows up in multiple entries across stages and dates: CreatorDB (Marketing, but explicitly tied to AI; $5M on 2025-09-21), PopChill (Marketplace, AI; $3M on 2025-09-17), and iKala (AI; $17M on 2020-08-19). A clear outlier sector-wise is CakeResume’s Administrative Services round ($900K on 2020-08-10), which is the smallest disclosed amount in the list.
