The round is Gilmour Space, 20 January 2026.
1 of the 1 round disclosed a size, together $146M. That is the size of the rounds QIC took part in, not the amount QIC invested: we hold no per-investor allocations and do not estimate them.
The investor most often on the same counted rounds as QIC is Blackbird Ventures, on 1 round.
1 other recorded transaction naming QIC is not counted in this portfolio; it is listed separately with the class that keeps it out (state capital: 1).
Private funding rounds into space companies that name QIC as lead or participant, newest first, each with its source. Round size is the whole round; a blank size was never disclosed and is not estimated.
