What DFX sees in the record
  • DerivedWenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research Inc holds a fund and the manager's next fund in that series, a fund, is open (newly closed).
  • DerivedNo commitment to the new fund appears on the plan's filings yet.
Why it matters

This allocator committed to the prior fund of a series that now has a successor fund. Existing LPs are the first calls in any raise, so this is the re-up list for the GP, and for a competing GP it shows whose capital may be in play.

Who this is for

GPs raising a successor fund, placement agents, and competing GPs in the same strategy.

Relationship network

78 connected entities54 observed commitments6 repeat counterparties17 dated commitments shown here, 2024

From board minutes, annual reports, Form 5500 filings and public records of commitments, consultants and staff in the allocator graph. Commitment amounts are those the allocator disclosed; many are not printed, and none is estimated.

Some relationships on this record are counted rather than named here. They open with the full profile.

Click any name or line for the commitments and sources behind it. Line weight is commitments together; dashed lines are inferred.

What stands out
Reading the network
  • Sponsor
  • Fund or vehicle
  • Person

Managers, funds and consultants are read from the commitments: three or more is a strong observed relationship, two a repeat counterparty. No consultant link is marked current on the source, so none is labelled current or former here. Related plans, people and plan service providers are ordered by what the filing shows.

Darker lines were active in the last 24 months or are current; lighter lines are older or undated.
