In Van Nuys, one disclosed round stands well above the rest: Jet Edge International’s $75M debt financing on 2022-01-11, compared with the next-largest disclosed amounts of $36M (AppliedVR, 2021-11-11) and $12M (Final Bell Holdings, 2024-07-11). The small number of entries also creates clear clustering in time: four of seven rounds fall between 2022-09-13 and 2025-08-26, with three additional entries concentrated in 2021–2022 (AppliedVR on 2021-11-11 and Jet Edge International on 2022-01-11, plus Dasher Lawless on 2022-09-13).
Sector and stage classifications skew toward variability rather than a single repeated label. Hardware appears twice (Sorting Robotics on 2023-11-01 for $2M; AppliedVR on 2021-11-11 for $36M), while Financial Services also appears twice (Payment Labs on 2025-08-26 for $3M; The Fundworks on 2025-05-07 for $10M). “Series Unknown” is present in three of seven rows (The Fundworks 2025-05-07 for $10M; Final Bell Holdings 2024-07-11 for $12M; Sorting Robotics 2023-11-01 for $2M). The covered window for these seven most recent entries runs from 2021-11-11 through 2025-08-26.

Frequently asked
What stands out as the largest disclosed round in Van Nuys, and how does it compare to the rest of the list?
Jet Edge International’s $75M debt financing on 2022-01-11 is the clear outlier; the next-largest disclosed rounds are $36M (AppliedVR, 2021-11-11) and $12M (Final Bell Holdings, 2024-07-11), with the remaining disclosed amounts at $10M or below.
Do any sectors or stages appear disproportionately often in these seven recent entries?
Two sectors repeat at the same frequency: Hardware (Sorting Robotics $2M on 2023-11-01; AppliedVR $36M on 2021-11-11) and Financial Services (Payment Labs $3M on 2025-08-26; The Fundworks $10M on 2025-05-07). Stage labeling is also uneven: “Series Unknown” appears in 3 of 7 rows (The Fundworks $10M on 2025-05-07; Final Bell Holdings $12M on 2024-07-11; Sorting Robotics $2M on 2023-11-01).
Which rounds fall closest to the most recent date shown (2025-08-26), based on the round dates in the table?
Within roughly the 90 days leading to 2025-08-26, Payment Labs closed on 2025-08-26 for $3M and The Fundworks closed on 2025-05-07 for $10M; the next most recent date after those is 2024-07-11 (Final Bell Holdings) for $12M.
Are there notable timing clusters across these seven entries rather than a uniform spread?
Yes. Three entries cluster in late 2021–2022 (AppliedVR on 2021-11-11 for $36M; Jet Edge International on 2022-01-11 for $75M; Dasher Lawless on 2022-09-13 for $2M), while the more recent set (2024-07-11 through 2025-08-26) adds three more rounds (Final Bell Holdings $12M; The Fundworks $10M; Payment Labs $3M).
Is there an outlier in sector mix beyond the deal-size outlier, and does it show up in specific entries?
The size outlier is also sector-distinct: Jet Edge International’s $75M debt financing (2022-01-11) is in Science and Engineering, while most other disclosed amounts are comparatively small (e.g., $2M rounds at Sorting Robotics 2023-11-01 and Dasher Lawless 2022-09-13). Hardware’s two entries span $2M to $36M, making it less extreme than the Science and Engineering $75M case.
