What matters now
- 2 vehicleson Form D, 18 months
$64M reported sold so far.
A Form D is filed when a vehicle takes its first money, so these are open to LPs now.
- 2 companiesnew in 12 months
2 new companies in the last 12 months. Latest round BluePill's round ($6M round) on 17 Nov 2025. Took 1 board seat on new Form D filings in 90 days (Accipiter Biosciences).
A firm writing cheques this quarter is one a founder can pitch now.
- 1 companyportfolio raising
One portfolio company has new financing on record in 6 months without this firm named on the round; the latest on 21 Jul 2026 ($10.5M sold on Form D).
A portfolio company raising again is a follow-on decision for the firm and a co-investment opening for others.

What these amounts mean“This investor” is the amount disclosed for this investor alone; it is unknown unless a source said it. The round size is the whole round.Acquired, Public, Exited and Active are what the firm’s own portfolio card says, read on the date shown when you hover the chip; they are not deal dates. A company with no chip is one whose card states no outcome: DFX does not assume it is active.| Company | Round | Role | Partner | Round size | This investor | Date | Source |

What these amounts and dates areEach commitment is counted once across the pension tape and the allocator graph. A commitment date prints only when the source printed one; otherwise the row carries the report date. A foundation’s 990-PF line is a holding at fair value, never a commitment. Rows without a fund on the venture graph are commitments to this manager.Relationships across DFX
