About Louisiana

Louisiana's Form D filings cluster in New Orleans (energy-services, hospitality, biotech via Tulane and LSU-Health), Baton Rouge (petrochemical and LSU ecosystem), and Lafayette (oilfield services). The oil-and-gas services industry drives a substantial share of filings — engineering-services companies, oilfield-equipment providers, and specialty-chemicals businesses. Round sizes vary widely, with energy-services filings often larger ($20M–$100M) reflecting capital intensity. Delaware incorporation dominates for venture-backed operating companies; Louisiana LLCs appear for real-estate, energy, and asset-backed vehicles.

In 2026, Louisiana accounts for 10 catalogued filings totaling $361M, running at roughly 2.3 filings per week over the last 30 days.

About private capital in Louisiana

Louisiana has moderate corporate tax rates, a regulatory environment shaped by the state's petrochemical and energy economies, and distinctive civil-law traditions (unique among US states) that affect some commercial-law patterns. The Port of New Orleans and Port of South Louisiana drive shipping-tech and logistics filings. The LSU-Health biotech ecosystem contributes specialty life-science filings. Hospitality and tourism investment vehicles tied to New Orleans and Gulf Coast markets file regularly. Operating companies incorporate in Delaware; Louisiana LLCs dominate for energy-project vehicles.
