Because public detail can be uneven for smaller firms, family offices, and angel networks, treat cheque and stage fields as directional rather than rigid rules.

Additional context from available notes: STPI Overall, STPI Centres of Entrepreneurship is best approached with a crisp narrative on why the opportunity fits its stage and sector lens, and what the next milestone funded capital unlocks.
