Index Raises $2B Across New Funds
Index Ventures raised $2 billion across seed, venture and growth funds after major liquidity wins.
Large venture funds are still raising serious capital when they can point to real liquidity.
What happened
Index Ventures raised $2 billion across three funds: a $400 million seed fund, a $900 million venture fund and $700 million added to its existing growth fund. That brings the firm’s available capital to $3.5 billion.
The raise follows major outcomes including Wiz’s sale to Alphabet and Figma’s IPO, both of which strengthened Index’s position with limited partners.
Why it matters
This is a useful VC-market signal. Fundraising has become harder for many venture firms, but top-tier managers with recent liquidity and AI exposure can still raise large pools of capital.
Index is also not simply chasing the biggest possible fund size. The structure suggests it wants capital across stages while preserving discipline around seed, venture and growth investing.
The bigger picture
The venture market is not equally frozen. Capital is concentrating around firms with proven exits, strong AI exposure and credible global networks. Index’s raise shows how liquidity winners can reload while weaker managers struggle.
