23 Jul 2019	Closed round	First outside round (Sodexo BRS)Zeta did not disclose the amount; a person familiar told TechCrunch it was less than $60M, so no figure is summed. TechCrunch calls this Zeta’s Series C as well.

No step-up is shown: Zeta mixes pre-money and post-money descriptions across rounds, so ratios would not compare like with like.

Methodology & status definitions

How each row is labelled and calculated.

Closed round

A primary round announced by the company or confirmed in the press, bringing new money to the company.

Valuation ÷ run-rate

Post-money valuation ÷ the run-rate the company stated in that announcement (GNF calc.). Where the run-rate is “crossed” or “over” a figure, the multiple is shown as “under X×”. No row qualifies here unless shown, so no multiple is invented.

What is not a separate row

Founder funding before 2019 (Zeta was self-funded by its co-founders until the Sodexo round); the size of the Sodexo investment (not disclosed).
