Fresh off its Wiz payout, Index Ventures raises $2B across three funds
刚从 Wiz 的投资回报中获益,Index Ventures 募集了 20 亿美元资金
Index Ventures has raised $2 billion in fresh capital across three funds, the firm announced on Friday. The 30-year-old firm raised $400 million for its new seed-focused fund and $900 million for its venture fund. Index also added $700 million to a $1.5 billion growth fund raised in 2024, bringing its total available capital to $3.5 billion.
Index Ventures 周五宣布,已通过三支基金募集了 20 亿美元的新资本。这家拥有 30 年历史的投资机构为其新的种子轮基金募集了 4 亿美元,并为其风险投资基金募集了 9 亿美元。此外,Index 还向其 2024 年募集的 15 亿美元成长基金追加了 7 亿美元,使其总可用资本达到 35 亿美元。
The fresh capital haul comes two years after Index raised $2.3 billion across two funds, including $800 million toward a predecessor venture fund. While Index has refrained from ballooning its fund sizes unlike several other VCs, the outfit continues to stand out for its strong recent performance.
此次募资距离 Index 上次通过两支基金募集 23 亿美元(其中包括 8 亿美元的前代风险投资基金)仅过去两年。尽管与其他几家风投机构不同,Index 并未盲目扩大基金规模,但凭借近期强劲的业绩表现,该公司依然脱颖而出。
Earlier this year, Index portfolio company Wiz completed its $32 billion sale to Alphabet. Index first invested in Wiz at the seed stage and became its largest outside shareholder with a 12% stake, a position likely worth $3.8 billion, according to Reuters’ reporting. Index was also an early investor in Figma, which went public last year.
今年早些时候,Index 的投资组合公司 Wiz 完成了以 320 亿美元出售给 Alphabet 的交易。据路透社报道,Index 在种子轮阶段首次投资 Wiz,并以 12% 的持股比例成为其最大的外部股东,该股份价值可能高达 38 亿美元。此外,Index 还是 Figma 的早期投资者,该公司已于去年上市。
Index’s AI bets include robotics company Physical Intelligence, inference platform Fireworks AI, and Anthropic, an investment made when the AI model maker raised capital at a $183 billion valuation last September.
Index 在人工智能领域的布局包括机器人公司 Physical Intelligence、推理平台 Fireworks AI,以及 Anthropic。Index 对 Anthropic 的投资发生在去年 9 月,当时这家 AI 模型制造商的估值达到了 1830 亿美元。
