Round sizes
Mega-rounds ($500M+) dominate 2025–2026, with Figure ($1.0B), Zipline ($600M), Physical Intelligence ($600M), and Apptronik ($520M) leading. Seed/A rounds have shrunk to $7–$105M, signaling a widening gap. Median growth-stage round now exceeds $300M, double the 2022 median of $100M.
Stage mix
Late-stage capital concentrates heavily in unicorns and near-IPO candidates. Series B–C rounds average $150–$400M in 2025–2026, while seed activity remains thin. Two IPOs in 2026 (UBTECH, Unitree) and three in 2024–2025 signal liquidity push at cap table top. Balanced ecosystem evaporating.
Lead investors
SoftBank, Brookfield, and CapitalG anchor mega-deals. Parkway Venture Capital, B Capital, and Valor Equity Partners emerged as Series C–Growth specialists. Toyota (Woven Capital), LG Electronics, and Microsoft-aligned funds signal strategic corporate entry. Traditional VCs (Sequoia, Andreessen) largely absent from latest rounds.
