Across the 6 most recent funded entries listed for Wales, Cumbria, United Kingdom, Hexigone Inhibitors’ $2M Seed round on 2026-06-02 is the largest disclosed amount and it stands well above the next-largest disclosed rounds ($1M on 2022-12-06 for Virtue Health Group, and $650K on 2024-09-10 for Menna). Three companies (Awen Oncology, Polytag, Hexigone Inhibitors) cluster in 2026, with round dates spanning 2026-04-22 through 2026-06-02.
Sector and stage mix are uneven: Health Care appears in 2 of 6 entries (Awen Oncology and Virtue Health Group), while AI (Menna), Software (Everknock), Science & Engineering (Hexigone Inhibitors), and Information Technology (Polytag) each appear once. Stage labels are mostly non-comparable here, with 2 of 6 entries marked “undisclosed” amounts and 3 of 6 using “Series Unknown.” The disclosed amounts range from $100K (Everknock, 2022-01-13) to $2M (Hexigone Inhibitors, 2026-06-02), covering round dates from 2022-01-13 to 2026-06-02.

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in this Wales listing, and how far is it above the rest?
Hexigone Inhibitors’ $2M Seed round dated 2026-06-02 is the largest disclosed amount. The next-largest disclosed entries are Virtue Health Group’s $1M (2022-12-06) and Menna’s $650K (2024-09-10), so the $2M figure is materially higher than the rest of the disclosed range.
Do the most recent rounds cluster tightly by date in this list?
Yes. Three of the 6 entries have 2026 round dates: Awen Oncology (2026-04-22, undisclosed), Polytag (2026-01-26, undisclosed), and Hexigone Inhibitors (2026-06-02, $2M). The latest date shown is 2026-06-02, while the oldest is 2022-01-13.
Are any cities or geographies repeated in a way that suggests a hub within the listing?
All 6 rows show the same location string, “Wales, Cumbria, United Kingdom,” without city-level diversification. That means the list doesn’t break out multiple distinct cities or neighborhoods; instead, it concentrates all entries under one shared location label.
How dominant is the stage/amount disclosure pattern, and does it affect comparability?
Two of the six entries have amounts marked “undisclosed” (Awen Oncology on 2026-04-22 and Polytag on 2026-01-26). Separately, three of six use “Series Unknown” as the round type (Awen Oncology, Polytag, and Awen Oncology’s category can’t be reconciled to a specific stage), making the disclosed and categorized rounds less directly comparable across the full set.
Which sectors appear more than once, and does anything look like an outlier by sector?
Health Care is the only sector repeated, appearing twice: Awen Oncology (2026-04-22, undisclosed) and Virtue Health Group (2022-12-06, $1M). Other sectors—AI (Menna, 2024-09-10, $650K), Software (Everknock, 2022-01-13, $100K), Science & Engineering (Hexigone Inhibitors, 2026-06-02, $2M), and Information Technology (Polytag, 2026-01-26, undisclosed)—each show up once.
