How this is compiled
Each row is a funding round reported in a StartupReader brief that week; its amount, round, lead investor and place come from the brief's story card, which is checked against the brief's text. Follow a row to the brief and the outlets it credits. A round reported twice is counted once. Amounts are shown as reported; to add them up, other currencies are converted at fixed approximate rates (€1 = $1.16, £1 = $1.33, $1 = ₹88). Spotted a mistake? Tell us.
