NVIDIA signed an agreement to acquire Hugging Face in September 2026, but its SEC filing expects closing in the first half of 2027 subject to conditions. This is not a completed sale or a financing round. A purported January 2024 Series D and separate March 2017 $1M seed/accelerator entries were duplicate or unsupported database artifacts and are omitted. The $1.2M reported by March 2017 may include the October 2016 financing; do not sum both. This is not a complete issuer financing register. Status source ↗
