Redpoint raises $650M 3 years after its last big early-stage fund

Redpoint Ventures, a 25-year-old San Francisco-based venture capital firm, has raised its largest early-stage fund to date, totaling $650 million, despite a broader venture capital landscape facing reduced funding targets. The firm’s ability to maintain such scale highlights satisfaction among its limited partners, while its managing partners—Alex Bard, Satish Dharmaraj, Annie Kadavy, and Erica Brescia—bring decades of experience as COOs at GitHub. Redpoint has successfully invested in notable startups like Poolside AI, Cockroach Labs, and Levelpath, achieving significant exits including the sale of Next Insurance for $2.6 billion and Tastemade to Wonder for $90 million.
