Georgia led total deal count tied with Florida (7 deals in FL, 6 deals in GA), while New Jersey logged the highest average deal size due to its major energy funding package.

Key Insights
October funding showed high geographic concentration in the Sunbelt and Southeast markets—led by Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Tennessee—which collectively absorbed over 50% of all deals and funding. Capital deployment was heavily tilted toward physical infrastructure and field operations, as Construction, Automotive, and Logistics together captured nearly three-quarters of overall capital. The data illustrates a clear bifurcated strategy: large capital commitments directed toward high-capital projects in energy, construction, and auto sales in states like New Jersey, Georgia, and Texas, alongside smaller, tactical cash-flow infusions into localized logistics and service businesses across Florida, Tennessee, and Missouri.
