Direct Round lists 10 checked portfolio companies on its own site. Its largest themes are AI & Machine Learning (39%), Enterprise Software (17%) and Cybersecurity (11%). 50% of its companies are based in United States. It invests most often alongside Aleph, 10D and Atlantic Bridge.

No funding round on record names Direct Round yet, so the figures come from its portfolio page.

Round figures show recent activity, not Direct Round's whole history. Rounds on record name 0 companies; its own site lists 10. Funding rounds are complete from mid-2025, so counts and the yearly trend undercount a firm that invested before then. The portfolio, themes and places come from its own site and are not affected.

A site that stops answering three checks in a row is counted as no longer answering; that is not proof of closure. A site that points to another company is often an acquisition.

Rates come from what VCinfo has observed since observation_start. Firms tend to remove companies that closed, so early rates understate reality. A company leaving a portfolio page does not mean it closed or exited. An unreachable site means our checks failed, nothing more.
