Each month, we track newly closed venture capital and private equity funds that empower startups on their growth journey. We aim to create the most comprehensive and reliable venture capital fund tracker, tailored to founders and entrepreneurs seeking insights into funds with significant investment capacity.

We focus on funds from Europe, the United States, Canada, Japan and the MENA region. We only feature funds that have successfully completed at least a first closing to ensure they actually have dry powder to invest.
