Generated from EDGAR primary sources

EquityZen Growth Technology Fund LLC - Series 172 is a Delaware pooled investment fund vehicle filed by EquityZen Advisors LLC on January 4, 2018. The entity raised $450,000 from 24 investors under Rule 506(b) and 3(c)(1) exemptions, with a $10,000 minimum investment. This is one of approximately 150 related entities within the EquityZen private equity platform.

This offering represents a typical SPV structure in the private equity secondaries market, using 506(b) private placement and 3(c)(1) Investment Company Act exemptions. The $10,000 minimum investment is significantly lower than traditional institutional private equity vehicles, reflecting a platform model designed for accredited individual investors accessing pre-IPO company shares.
