What's the deal? Endeavor Catalyst has closed its fifth fund, Fund V, raising $320 million in an oversubscribed round. The close lifts the firm's assets under management past $850 million.
What's the endgame? Fund V has already committed more than $55 million to 30 companies. Endeavor Catalyst plans to deploy a further $25 million to $30 million by the end of 2026.
Who's in the portfolio? The firm's portfolio spans 437 companies across 44 markets. Of those, 83 have reached valuations of at least $1 billion, and 39 have resulted in exits.
Among the holdings are Altruist, Bending Spoons, and ElevenLabs — companies the firm cites as expanding where technology businesses originate.
