The first week of June brought cause for celebration with venture capital funding being over $500 million, precisely $504 million across 12 deals. A tech startup CleanMax is responsible for the increment in venture capital funding. This week’s funding was a surprise since last week’s amount raised was $231 million, though the increase was due to a single transaction.
Growth/Late-stage Deals
Most of the funding raised this week is attributed to a transaction for CleanMax, but other startups have been able to raise funding as well. This includes startups like Atomberg, Capillary Technologies, and Pixxel. Refer to this table for a more comprehensive understanding of this week's funds.
