Raised a fund
Sept 2026, $581M closedSEC filing

They filed with the SEC to raise a fund in Sept 2026, closing $581M. That is the one thing on this page that does not depend on a journalist writing about them: a firm that has just raised has money to deploy, whether or not we have observed it spending any.

An announcement gives the size of the round, not the size of this investor's cheque. The only rounds that imply a cheque are those where they were the sole named investor.

Who they invest alongside

Firms that appear in the same rounds. This is a count of rooms they were both in, not a relationship either of them has claimed — and it is the list to read if you are working out who else to approach.
