Swiss VC redalpine has closed redalpine Capital VII (RAC VII) fund, raising $200 million, which exceeded its original target despite a challenging fundraising environment. A significant number of existing investors doubled down on their commitment, with limited partners including renowned family offices and leading institutional investors (including public pension funds, Funds of Funds, and national and international banks). Today, redalpine has over $1bn in assets under management across its seven funds. The RAC VII fund will support 15 to 20 early-stage companies from all over Europe. In line with the new Fund, redalpine is expanding to London, further expanding its global presence.

Today we announced our newest $1.6 billion fund, IVP 18. I had the privilege of joining IVP 19 years ago when we were investing out of IVP XI, a $300M vehicle raised in the year 2004. Our mission remains the same - to fuel growth in the sharpest technology companies. A huge thanks to the limited partners of fund 18 who are entrusting us to be stewards of their capital - we don't take that responsibility for granted. The level of founder talent is sky-high, especially as they harness the power of AI to build businesses that would have been impossible even 2 years ago. These entrepreneurs are resilient and battle-tested - they are often the ones who build the largest and longest enduring companies. We deeply believe the founders we partner with over the next decade will be some of the most transformative builders we have ever worked with over our 44 year history. We've already partnered with pathbreaking AI native companies like Grammarly DeepL Jasper Perplexity Glean Abridge Baseten and are excited for many more to add to this list in fund 18! A special thanks to the amazing founders who spoke with Allie Garfinkle. We are always indebted to be a small part of your incredible journeys. George Kurtz Jyoti Bansal Ilkka Paananen Bipul Sinha thank you! None of this is possible without the tenacious team at IVP. The true joy is being able to work with these individuals over the course of months, years and decades. Steve Harrick Eric Liaw Tom Loverro Ajay Vashee Cack Wilhelm Alex Lim Dennis Phelps Jules Maltz Sandy Miller Todd Chaffee Norm Fogelsong Richard Clarke Tamar Yehoshua Blair Shane Tracy Hogan Kelly O'Kane Davey Nickels Leslie Schuster Stolper Zack Willis Angela Zhu Karthik Ramakrishnan Shravan N. James Black and many others make the wheels turn ever day! Lastly, we honor the legacy of IVP founder Reid Dennis who passed away last week. During the many uncertain months in 2022 and 2023, I went back to an interview that Reid did on the oral history of venture capital during the last crisis back in 2009. In it, he walked through the evolution of our industry and firm. One of his favorite phrases was "Innovation is nothing new...", a tongue in cheek reminder that the ideation/creation process never ends and will always bring sunny days after periods of so called doom and gloom.

Great article from Sifted on the wave in secondaries 🌊🌊🌊🌊 (pity about the cover photo Mike Turner). Interesting to read about VCs increasingly raising funds to buy secondary stakes, echoing the rise of PE continuation funds
What’s behind the rise in secondaries — and how could it affect founders?

Thanks to the great support of our investors, existing and new, we have completed the £60m raise across five of our six VCTs. Will Fraser-Allen notes that: “Despite the challenging macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, it is encouraging to see that the Albion VCTs’ fund raising target was over-subscribed which is a strong endorsement for the Albion team... There is a substantial opportunity to back the category leading software and healthcare businesses of the future. #VCTs remain an attractive long-term vehicle for investors as they are able to invest throughout economic cycles; they provide compelling tax benefits and have delivered good long-term performance.” More details here: https://lnkd.in/d7qhDpT7 #vct #investmentmanagement #venturecapital

Tracking the most Active VCs & FOs Worldwide for Tech Startups. (POWER CONNECTOR) Talks about #fundraising #startup #DeepTech #M&A #FOs #VCs #LPs #PE
It's now such a brute force capital game that you're seeing a shift in the composition of LP bases," one longtime LP tells me. "Many large VC funds have started turning to the sorts of investors they wouldn't have even met with 10 years ago." The bottom line: This sea change might be fine for venture in the short-term, particularly as fee-hungry firms raise larger funds. But it's also a major risk to dump your longtime partner for someone who might view you as a fling. #venturecapital #fundraising #Limitedpartner #generalpartner #Investments #LPs #GPs #VCs

how does a VC firm make returns to justify a raise of $7.2 billion- this is beyond comprehension. *just imagine the quantum of decacorns they would need in the portfolio!! *they would need to get majority stake-holding in almost all deals they participate (sectors identified - AI apps/AI infra/ American Dynamisn- no clue what it means) *10% of fund goes to gaming which is understandable considering the focus of the fund <under the leadership of Andrew Chen> mind-boggling for a curious investor like me!! #investor #Venturecapital #fund #capital #startups #andreesenhorowitz

Technology Media & Telecoms Researcher. A tinkerer sharing what I'm learning about Africa's digital economy.
Partech Africa, the global VC fund, has closed “Partech II,” a second Africa-focused fund, at $300 mn. It’s more than double it’s first 2018 fund ($143mn). That 2018 fund is now past its half-life. So exits from that fund will high in the priority list for Partech partners. Curious how many LPs from that fund (excluding DFIs) returned for this fund. The new fund will invest in seed to Series C deal’s continuing a trend where funds continue to go into deals earlier.
