    Form D

Restricted to the industry groups a venture-backed technology company files under, which on Form D means Other Technology, Computers, Telecommunications and Business Services. Funds, SPVs, property partnerships and offerings open to non-accredited investors are excluded, as are offerings whose first sale was more than 45 days ago. Amounts are the total sold to date on that offering, which can cover more than one tranche. Where an outlet is named we found coverage of that round in the feeds we index. Where none is named we did not find any, which is a limit of what those feeds reach and not evidence the round went unreported.

Announced in the press

Raised, and no launch behind it?

A funding round is the one moment a company gets attention it did not have to buy. Most of it is spent on a press release nobody reads. We run the other version.
