Funds we've worked with
Why Venture capital?
- Venture capital is core to institutional investors’ portfolios – from investment and pension funds to endowments, access to private markets offers potentially outsized returns¹.
- The private market industry reached $9.8 trillion in 2021; within this, VC hit record fundraising levels, attracting significant capital after decades of strong performance².
- VC funds invest today in the businesses that define tomorrow – whilst higher risk can bring higher returns, venture capital’s reputation has evolved beyond being “risky”, with median funds significantly outperforming public markets and most major asset classes, and top quartile funds delivering IRRs of 35%+ over the past decade³.
- Top-performing managers remain perpetually oversubscribed, with high minimum investment requirements – via Sprout, diversify your portfolio and access top-tier funds alongside both institutional and like-minded investors.
