Generated from EDGAR primary sources

EquityZen Growth Technology Fund LLC - Series 253 is a Delaware pooled investment vehicle filed by EquityZen Advisors LLC on 2018-06-04, raising $566K from 21 investors under Rule 506(b) and 3(c)(1) exemptions. The fund is part of the EquityZen platform, which operates a large family of pre-IPO investment vehicles with over 1,800 related EDGAR entities. Minimum investment is $10K.

This pre-IPO pooled fund uses the standard 506(b) private placement exemption paired with 3(c)(1) Investment Company Act relief, typical for smaller venture-stage SPVs. The $10K minimum investment and $566K total raise reflect EquityZen's retail-accessible model, substantially lower than institutional pre-IPO funds that often require $100K+ minimums.
