This data helps identify market movements, strategic partnerships, and industry growth patterns. Important: The New Investment event surfaces only recent investment activities within the last quarter (timestamp_from should be set to the past 3 months). If there was no investment recorded during this period, the response will be empty. For historical investment records, use the Funding & Acquisitions Enrichment API.
