How we count

A new fund is a pooled investment vehicle that a US issuer marked “Venture Capital Fund” on SEC Form D, whose first original Form D notice (amendments don’t count) is dated in May 2025. Each one is attributed to the firm that sponsors it. A fund is counted once, in the month it first filed, however many amendments follow. Parallel and feeder vehicles that file separately are counted separately.

SPVs are single-deal, co-investment, sidecar and syndicate vehicles, series of a master fund, and offerings under $3M; they are counted apart from funds. Target capital is the sum of the total offering amounts on each fund’s latest Form D, for funds that state one; it is what the fund is raising, not what has closed. State and sector come from the sponsoring firm’s profile.

Form D filings can arrive late, so recent months can grow after a data rebuild. Months are published once they have at least 10 new funds. The data covers the last 15 quarters of the SEC’s Form D data sets. Full sources and field definitions are in the methodology.
