series B

Second venture round

Series B is a stage of venture capital funding for a startup, typically the third major round after seed funding and Series A.

At this point, the company has usually proven its concept and seeks capital to scale operations, expand into new markets, or grow its team: They just closed their Series B at fifty million.

The alphabetical progression continues through Series C, D, and beyond as companies raise additional rounds.
