A5X's $69.9M Series D dominates Latin America startup funding
Latin American startups secured $73.7 million in funding this week. Nearly all of it—$69.9 million—went to Brazil-based A5X, which closed a Series D round. The remaining $3.8 million was spread across other companies in the region.

If similar patterns persist, it could further widen the gap between well-funded scale-ups and smaller startups struggling to raise.
