Hamilton Lane announced the launch of the Hamilton Lane Global Venture Capital and Growth Fund (“HLGVG” or “the Fund”), an evergreen investment vehicle focused on growth and venture opportunities in the private markets. The Fund is available to certain individual investors and their advisors, as well as institutional investors, in parts of Europe, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East, as well as in Australia, New Zealand and Canada. HLGVG offers investors access to the firm’s global venture capital investment platform, which seeks to deliver strong performance by investing in disruptive technologies and innovative businesses.
The Fund leverages Hamilton Lane’s deep expertise in private markets co-investments and secondaries to access compelling deal flow. Structured as an evergreen vehicle, the portfolio is diversified across vintage year, transaction type, manager, strategy and geography. With a focus on innovation, diversification and institutional-quality assets, the Fund seeks to address common barriers to entry in this dynamic space.
It follows the launch of the firm’s venture evergreen fund in the U.S. earlier this year. The Fund seeks to leverage Hamilton Lane’s use of proprietary data, technology, and AI to support decision making and operational excellence. Hamilton Lane’s track record of driving digital transformation within the industry, now under its HL Innovations initiative, includes strategic balance sheet investments in transformational investment technology, the development of its proprietary Cobalt platform and more.
