这个批次中，至少有三家公司已经在加入Surge之前获得了外部投资（有些甚至直接来自Peak XV）。
Last day to demo your breakthrough to 10,000+ tech leaders is on Oct 2. Book Exhibit Table Now.** Close ** At least three of the companies in this cohort had already raised outside funding, in some cases from Peak XV itself, before joining Surge.
这批新入选的初创企业被称为“Surge 12”，它们是首批在Peak XV的新投资政策下获得支持的团队——该政策将每家公司的最高投资额从之前的300万美元提高到了500万美元。据Peak XV透露，这家风险投资机构在整个“Surge 12”项目中总共投资了超过5000万美元，而这些初创企业总共筹集了9000多万美元的种子轮融资资金。虽然Peak XV拒绝透露具体的投资中位数，但每家公司的平均投资额确实有所增加。
The new batch, called Surge 12, is the first to operate under Peak XV’s higher investment ceiling of up to $5 million per company, up from $3 million previously. The venture firm invested more than $50 million across the cohort, which has collectively raised over $90 million in seed funding, according to Peak XV. Its median investment per company has also increased, though the firm declined to disclose the figure.
Peak XV的董事总经理Rajan Anandan在接受采访时说：“如今，获得A轮融资的门槛已经大幅提高了。”他还指出，越来越多的资本密集型企业（尤其是在深度科技领域）在种子轮融资阶段就寻求更大规模的资金支持。
“The bar to raise a Series A has gone up pretty significantly,” Rajan Anandan (pictured above), managing director at Peak XV, said in an interview. He added that the firm is also seeing more capital-intensive companies, particularly in deeptech, that are raising larger rounds at the seed stage.
Anandan告诉TechCrunch，随着每一批新项目的启动，Surge的国际化程度也在不断提高；最新的项目团队中涵盖了来自旧金山到悉尼的创始人及初创企业。在“Surge 12”中的18家初创企业中，只有5家专注于印度市场，而超过一半的公司总部位于印度；其余13家公司则将目标市场定在全球范围内。
Surge has become more global with each cohort, Anandan told TechCrunch, with its latest group spanning founders and companies from San Francisco to Sydney. Just five of the 18 startups in Surge 12 are focused on the Indian market, while more than half of the companies are based in India. The remaining 13 target global markets, highlighting the difference between where the companies are built and where they expect to find customers.
自2019年成立以来（当时Peak XV还被称为Sequoia Capital India and Southeast Asia），Surge已经支持了180多家初创企业，这些企业的创始人来自18个不同的国家。据Peak XV称，目前从这些项目中脱颖而出的10家最大型企业的年总收入已超过10亿美元。
Since its launch in 2019, when Peak XV operated as Sequoia Capital India and Southeast Asia, Surge has backed more than 180 startups founded by entrepreneurs representing more than 18 nationalities. Peak XV says the 10 largest companies to emerge from those cohorts now generate more than $1 billion in combined annual revenue.
Surge 创始人参加 Peak XV 2026 美国沉浸式项目 资的一种方式，与该公司的标准种子轮投资并行，同时该公司在企业后续融资轮次中仍会继续担任投资者。他指出，其支持的创始人通常包括连续创业者、经验丰富的运营人员以及高度专业的技术型创始人，其中约 50% 到 60% 的入选者来自知名科技公司的运营岗位。

The founders it backs typically include repeat entrepreneurs, experienced operators, and highly specialized technical founders, he said, with about 50% to 60% of a typical cohort made up of people coming from operating roles at established technology companies.
