Industry Ventures, a pioneer in the venture capital secondary market where shares of startups are bought and sold, has raised $1.4 billion for its latest flagship secondary fund, according to an SEC filing. The last time the industry saw a fund of this size was when StepStone Group closed its $2.3 billion secondary fund in 2021.

This latest fundraise by Industry, which is backed by Goldman Sachs Asset Management among others, could be a sign of increased interest in the VC secondary market.
