|---|---|
| What happened | Final close. $950M hard cap. Sep 11. |
| AUM vs fund | $950M is Fund VI. >$2.6B is platform AUM. |
| Prior SEC print | Form D $875M (Jun 4). September is +$75M vs that file. |
| Strategy | Growth equity into founder-owned, capital-efficient software / internet / consumer. Board seat. Founders keep control (firm). |

Investigate further when: a $950 million small-cap growth fund at a hard cap is the capacity number you need.
Wait or pass when: you need LP names, the management-fee schedule beyond the Form D’s percentage-of-subscriptions language, or a directory page we do not have.
