**How this roundup is made**

It is written from the rounds we read that month in named articles and filings, counted by the country the company raised in. Only equity rounds with a stage count; debt, grants and public companies' raises do not. Each month the eight countries with the most equity rounds get their own roundup. We read more sources every month, so compare medians, not totals. [How we read rounds](https://millionrounds.com/methodology) · [Report a mistake](https://millionrounds.com/corrections)
