EquityZen Growth Technology Fund LLC - Series 188 is a Delaware pooled investment fund vehicle filed by EquityZen Advisors LLC on January 4, 2018. The entity raised $125,000 from 2 investors under Rule 506(b) and 3(c)(1) exemptions, with a $10,000 minimum investment. This is part of the EquityZen platform, which operates approximately 150 related EDGAR-registered series funds focused on private equity investments.

This filing represents a typical single-series SPV structure commonly used by private equity secondary platforms, utilizing the standard 506(b) and 3(c)(1) exemptions. The $10,000 minimum investment is relatively accessible for qualified purchasers in this asset class, and the small capital raise ($125K from 2 investors) is consistent with single-company exposure vehicles targeting pre-IPO technology holdings.
