Ulu Ventures has successfully raised $208 million for its fourth fund, Ulu Ventures IV, marking a notable achievement in its commitment to diversity in venture capital. The firm, recognized as the largest Latina-led VC in the U.S., aims to support diverse tech founders and has previously invested in ten unicorns. Meanwhile, Slow Ventures has launched a $60 million seed fund targeting content creators, emphasizing a focus on individuals with strong follower bases who demonstrate entrepreneurial potential. This initiative reflects a growing trend in venture capital towards supporting creator-driven business models, as evidenced by the increasing importance of the defense and resilience tech sector, which accounted for 10% of all VC funding in Europe, reaching a total of $5.2 billion last year, according to a report by the NATO Innovation Fund and Dealroom.
