Tech Seed and Series A Medians and Averages Show Little Change

Jumbo Series A deals typically range between $15M and $60M.  Companies raising this type of capital typically have been bootstrapped for quite some time, boasting revenues of $10M+ and looking for institutional capital to grow fast with goal of reaching a not too long term IPO.
