Buoyant Ventures, a women-led fund, raised $76m to invest in digital solutions to combat climate change.

The firm says it 'sees enormous opportunity in the use of artificial intelligence for intelligent business applications.'

Any VC firm that thinks it doesn't have to worry about the SEC because it's an 'exempt' reporting adviser should think again. The feds are paying closer attention to ERAs and bringing more enforcement actions.

About a year after closing on $750m for its seventh VC fund of funds, TrueBridge Capital Partners is back in the market with an eighth fund of the same size.

The two funds bring the firm's assets under management to more than $25bn.

Industry Ventures founder Hans Swildens has started to hear from LPs at risk of defaulting on capital calls from venture funds because of lack of liquidity – something he hasn’t seen since 2009-2010.

Of the $424m MassPRIM committed to diverse managers last year, $158m went to four managers of venture capital and/or growth funds.

Big names like Hamilton Lane, KKR and Partners Group have embraced tokenization for private equity funds, so why haven't any large VC firms followed suit?

Pierre Mauriès, a former executive with The Carlyle Group and the Private Equity Technology practice director at PwC, is nearing a first close on a $500m fund for Nemesis Technologies.

Now is a particularly good time for VCs to invest because the carpetbaggers are streaming for the exits.
