AI Reasoning: I searched the Missouri Department of Economic Development website and press releases. The department’s press releases show economic development projects, job announcements, and company expansions (e.g., Provalus expansion, AlphaGraphics KC, Lambda AI factory), but these are grants, incentives, or economic development support rather than venture investments in startups. No evidence found of a startup equity investment or recent direct investment activity by the Missouri Department of Economic Development. Given the absence of documented investment activity, I classify it as not-active. If the intent was to capture state economic development incentives as investments, those are not recorded as venture investments on the site. Time since last known investment cannot be established from available sources, so defaulting to not-active.

Not Active – No known investments in the last 12 months.

Low Activity – Only known investments between the last 12 and 6 months.

Active – Known investments between the last 6 and 3 months.

Very Active – Known investments in the last 3 months.
