New Canada-Silicon Valley Venture Fund Combines Strengths of Both
TORONTO & PALO ALTO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#5G–Raiven Capital, a new cross-border early-stage venture capital firm, today announced their first close.
Despite last year’s tumult, the globally focused fund, which invests in early-stage Series A tech companies, exceeded its first closing target of $25M USD.
