GoalVest Venture Capital, a female-founded division of GoalVest Advisory, has announced the first close of GoalVest Venture Growth Fund II, which is targeting a $50 million raise. Approximately 60 Limited Partners (LPs) are participating in this initial close.This fundraising milestone follows the good performance of Fund I, which celebrated the IPO of CoreWeave, a leading AI infrastructure company, in late March 2025. Since its IPO, CoreWeave’s value has increased approximately 2.5 times. Fund I also boasts a net IRR of 40% since its inception in April 2022, significantly outperforming the Forge Private Market Index (FPMI), which declined by about 30% during the same period.GoalVest launched its growth-stage venture platform in response to changing market dynamics in 2020-2021. The firm has reimagined venture capital through several key strategies:Multi-Channel Deal Sourcing: Combining secondary markets with primary funding rounds to access a broader range of companies.Fundamentals First Philosophy: Focusing on fundamental analysis and profitability rather than hype. They view themselves as "stock pickers".Multi-Sector Diversification: Investing across various sectors, including Consumer and Industrials, to mitigate risk.LP-Friendly Structure: Providing shorter fund cycles, faster distributions, lower fees, and more co-investment opportunities.

A 25% rebound in global private equity and venture capital dealmaking value in 2024 indicates a cautious but growing optimism for steadily improving market conditions in the year ahead and beyond. https://www.newnex.io/blogs/venture-capital/private-markets-set-for-resurgence-in-2025-driven-by-ai-liquidity-and-policy-shifts-global-survey-reveals

Porsche Automobil Holding SE and Deutsche Telekom AG are in discussions to serve as anchor investors for a new €500 million venture capital fund focused on European defense technology companies. The fund will be managed by DTCP, an investment firm that was previously part of Deutsche Telekom. This initiative comes amid rising European military spending, especially following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which has sparked increased interest in defense investments. Notably, Porsche SE has shifted its investment policy to include companies focused solely on defense, moving beyond its previous focus on dual-use technologies. Both Porsche and Deutsche Telekom have existing investment ties with DTCP and have previously co-invested in defense-related startups such as Quantum Systems, a German drone maker.

Private market funds lag US stocks over short and long term State Street private equity index outpaced by S&P 500 over 3 months and 1, 3, 5 and 10 years for first time since 2000Private market funds, including private equity, private debt, and venture capital, have underperformed US large-cap stocks across all standard time horizons for the first time since 2000. According to the State Street private equity index, private market funds returned 7.08% in 2024, compared to a 25.02% total return for the S&P 500. This underperformance is attributed to a slowdown in private equity dealmaking, higher interest rates impacting deal prices and exits, and reduced benefits from leverage and multiple expansion. While private debt and sector-focused funds (notably financial and energy) performed better within private markets, the overall gap with public equities was one of the largest on record. The article notes that although some top private equity managers and sector specialists can still outperform, broad-based private market investments have recently lagged public benchmarks, challenging investor expectations for higher and less volatile returns from private markets.https://on.ft.com/4mxqoj3

Berlin’s artificial intelligence startup n8n has become the latest European tech unicorn, after venture capital firm Accel is said to lead a funding round pushing its valuation to $2.3 billion—up from $350 million just four months earlier. Meritech Capital, among other investors, is expected to join the hundreds-of-millions-euro round, reflecting a booming appetite for AI bets across the continent.Bloomberg reports that Accel overcame competing offers from heavyweights like Insight Partners to claim the lead role in n8n’s latest round. The new funding, which dramatically outpaces previous company valuations reported by outlets such as the Financial Times, is pre-money—meaning it excludes the new capital set to flow in.Founded in 2019, n8n specializes in software that automates business tasks using AI-powered agents, touted as the next evolutionary leap beyond chatbots. The company now surpasses $40 million in annual recurring revenue and counts blue-chip firms like Vodafone Group and Delivery Hero among its major clients. Earlier this year, n8n secured €55 million in a funding round led by Highland Europe and reported a fivefold annual revenue increase.The investment surge tracks a broader trend in European tech. Paris-based Mistral AI is reportedly in advanced talks to raise up to $1 billion. Helsing, headquartered in Germany and focused on AI for drones and defense, doubled its value to €12 billion. Meanwhile, Swedish firm Lovable recently netted $200 million, sealing its status as a unicorn.

Frazier Life Sciences has closed a new $1.3 billion venture fund aimed at early-stage biotechnology investments. The fund will support the creation and development of startups focused on preclinical and early clinical-stage therapies.This move places Frazier among the leading biotech venture firms recently raising large funds, reflecting continued interest in innovation despite challenging market conditions.🔬 Investment Focus and Track RecordFrazier has been one of the most active early-stage investors in life sciences, backing numerous private companies and frequently leading funding rounds. Its portfolio includes companies working in oncology, kidney disease, and targeted immune therapies.Several of its portfolio companies have achieved significant milestones, including acquisitions by major pharmaceutical firms and successful IPOs. These outcomes highlight Frazier’s ability to identify and scale promising biotech ventures.📉 Biotech Market LandscapeThe broader biotech sector is experiencing funding pressures. Venture investment in seed and Series A rounds has declined significantly, reflecting cautious investor behavior. Larger, later-stage funding rounds are becoming more common, while early-stage deals are less frequent.Despite this, Frazier’s successful fundraise shows that there is still strong investor confidence in experienced firms with a track record of generating returns from early-stage biotech innovation.

Venture capital firm CRV has raised a $750 million fund—its 20th—to invest exclusively in early-stage startups. This marks a significant strategic shift for the firm, which is moving away from late-stage investing after returning a large portion of capital from a previous follow-on fund. CRV believes that doubling down on seed and Series A investments aligns better with its strengths and offers higher long-term returns.The decision to scale back came after concerns that late-stage investments were underperforming and potentially hurting overall portfolio returns. Rather than pursuing another growth-stage fund, CRV chose to streamline its focus, concentrating solely on the early stages where it has historically had the most success.Despite the smaller fund size compared to previous efforts, demand from limited partners was exceptionally high. The firm raised the full $750 million in just four weeks, with investor interest significantly exceeding the amount offered.CRV plans to target sectors such as consumer technology and developer tools. With a long history of successful early bets, including many IPOs and acquisitions, the firm is positioning itself to capitalize on fresh opportunities in the startup ecosystem by staying lean, disciplined, and committed to its early-stage roots.
