DIG Ventures closes $120 million for its third fund

DIG Ventures has announced the close of its third fund at $120 million, according to a market update cited by ChainCatcher. Backers in the fund include Horsley Bridge, Sofina, Granite, and the endowment of a top U.S. university. The vehicle is set to invest in AI-native enterprise software and cloud infrastructure startups at the pre-seed and seed stages. Its focus areas include core infrastructure that supports AI-native enterprise software, including data, identity authentication, compliance, and orchestration. DIG Ventures said the fund aims to lead most of the rounds it joins, and that deployment of capital has already begun. The announcement centers on early-stage AI infrastructure and software investing, with the firm positioning the fund around foundational tooling rather than later-stage applications.

SparkLabs, Mirae Asset and Central Asian backers sign term sheet for new venture fund

SparkLabs Group, Mirae Asset Venture Investment, Kazakhstan’s fund-of-funds Qazaqstan Investment Corporation (QIC), and Uzbekistan’s IT Park Ventures have signed a term sheet to establish SparkLabs Mirae Silk Road Fund I LP, a venture capital fund to be managed by Mirae Asset Venture Investment and SparkLabs Group. The signing ceremony took place in Seoul during the state visits to South Korea by the presidents of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and during the first Central Asia–Korea summit. QIC and IT Park Ventures will serve as anchor investors in the proposed fund. According to the announcement, the fund will target Series A and later-stage startups in Central Asia that already have validated business models and are preparing to expand beyond the region. The mandate is sector-agnostic, though it will focus on AI-native companies with artificial intelligence at the core of their business. Portfolio companies are also expected to receive support from the global networks of SparkLabs and Mirae Asset, along with help expanding into South Korea, the United States, and the Middle East.
