Freestyle, a venture capital firm that has cut early checks into companies such as Airtable, Patreon, BetterUp and Narvar, has closed its sixth fund at $130 million.
The newest fund is also the firm’s largest investment vehicle to date, but still feels tiny compared to Andreessen Horowitz’s $400 million seed fund or Greylock’s $500 million seed fund. However, per general partner Jenny Lefcourt, the conservative raise was intentional: The growth hack, for the 2009-founded firm, is to stay the same despite valuation and check-size pressure from the broader early-stage market.
