Among the 20 most recent Ticino rounds shown, the largest disclosed amount is Energy Vault’s $18M on 2025-07-24. That single figure sits well above the rest of the disclosed rounds: the next-largest disclosed amounts visible are $40M for xFarm Technologies (2024-10-09) and $4M for Hive Power (2024-12-16), BloodLoop (2024-03-27), and PrimalBee is undisclosed. Disclosed amounts other than xFarm are clustered mostly in the sub-$4M range, with several seeds at $1M–$3M (e.g., Piece at $3M on 2025-04-21; InVirtuoLabs at $3M on 2025-02-20).
Temporal and geography patterns are also visible. The rounds span 2022-04-12 (HOXXOH) through 2025-07-24 (Energy Vault), with many entries concentrated from late 2024 into mid-2025. Lugano appears repeatedly (e.g., Energy Vault 2025-07-24; The Nemesis 2025-05-16; Piece 2025-04-21), alongside Manno, Morbio Inferiore, and Chiasso. Sector-wise, AI shows up in multiple rows (The Nemesis, Jaipur Robotics, InVirtuoLabs), while stage labels are mixed: there are 5 “Series Unknown” entries and 5 “undisclosed” amounts, so size-based comparisons only apply to disclosed dollar figures.

Frequently asked
What’s the biggest disclosed round in this Ticino list, and how isolated is it versus other disclosed amounts?
xFarm Technologies posted the largest disclosed amount at $40M on 2024-10-09. Aside from that, the next-largest disclosed figures visible are $18M (Energy Vault on 2025-07-24) and several rounds in the $4M range (e.g., Hive Power at $4M on 2024-12-16 and BloodLoop at $4M on 2024-03-27), with most other disclosed amounts below $4M (e.g., Jaipur Robotics at $800K on 2025-03-12).
Are there dense time windows where multiple rounds land close together?
Yes. Several rounds occur in a tight late-2024 to mid-2025 stretch, including Hive Power ($4M) on 2024-12-16, xFarm Technologies ($40M) on 2024-10-09, and a cluster of 2025 rounds such as Energy Vault ($18M) on 2025-07-24, The Nemesis ($600K) on 2025-05-16, and Piece ($3M) on 2025-04-21.
Which city shows the strongest repetition across this set of 20?
Lugano is the most consistently recurring location, appearing on multiple entries with different dates and sizes, including Energy Vault (2025-07-24, $18M), The Nemesis (2025-05-16, $600K), Piece (2025-04-21, $3M), InVirtuoLabs (2025-02-20, $3M), and Coinnect (2022-08-15, $2M).
How much of the list is comparable by disclosed funding size versus missing amounts or labels?
Funding-size comparability is limited by missing values: 5 entries list “undisclosed” amounts (e.g., Lighthouse Tech on 2025-05-23 and PrimalBee on 2024-10-18). In addition, 5 entries show “Series Unknown” stage labeling (e.g., Energy Vault on 2025-07-24 and Lighthouse Tech on 2025-05-23), so both stage and size are incomplete for a subset of recent rounds.
Is AI concentrated in specific stages or dates compared with other sectors in the list?
AI appears across multiple rounds in 2025, spanning Pre-Seed to Seed: Jaipur Robotics (Pre-Seed, $800K on 2025-03-12), The Nemesis (Seed, $600K on 2025-05-16), and InVirtuoLabs (Seed, $3M on 2025-02-20). That places AI in the same recent window as several other funded areas (e.g., Energy on 2025-07-24 and Financial Services on 2025-04-21).
