What counts as a funded startup?

A company our startup rules confirm as a startup (young, independent, venture-backed signals) with a venture round on record in the last two years: an announcement, an SEC Form D filing or a register's share allotment. Each role is re-checked on the startup's own careers board at least every 48 hours.
