Global software venture firm Insight Partners announced the closing of its thirteenth flagship fund with a dedicated buyout co-invest fund (Fund XIII) and the closing of its structured equity fund, Opportunities Fund II. These funds represent $12.5 billion in capital for deploying in leading software companies across the globe to support growth at any stage. Insight’s investment strategies saw strong support from both long-standing and notable new investors, with Insight’s employees representing the most significant aggregate commitment to the funds. And the closing of these new funds brings Insight Partners’ regulatory assets under management to over $90 billion. It marks a notable milestone in the firm’s 30-year history of scaling transformative software companies worldwide.
Insight’s flagship funds, such as Fund XIII, typically invest between $5 million and over $500 million in a company, with the ability to invest from the earliest institutional check to IPO. And the Opportunities Fund offers companies and their investors with alternative financing solutions, typically in the form of structured preferred equity investments, enabling them to continue their growth trajectory while bolstering their balance sheet. These vehicles will allow Insight to meet software companies across the globe at any stage of their growth journey with flexible financing solutions.
This fundraising announcement reinforces Insight’s commitment to advancing innovation and growth and supporting the next generation of software leaders. And after a year of successful exits and total realizations of over $8 billion, including the sales of Recorded Future to Mastercard, Own to Salesforce, WalkMe to SAP and Jama Software and AMCS to Private Equity sponsors, Insight Partners looks forward to the next few decades of powering great software companies to strong outcomes.
The closing of these funds alongside long-standing LPs and new investors alike, Insight celebrates these achievements as a testament to the partnerships it has developed and fostered for three decades. Since its founding in 1995, Insight Partners set out with a bold vision to be more than just an investor by harnessing a differentiated approach to software investing.
