Generated from EDGAR primary sources

EquityZen Growth Technology Fund LLC - Series 185 is a Delaware pooled investment fund filed by EquityZen Advisors LLC that raised $663K from 17 investors under Rule 506(b) and Section 3(c)(1). The offering requires a $10K minimum investment and is part of the EquityZen platform, which operates approximately 150 related series-structured SPVs focused on private growth technology companies.

This private equity vehicle follows a typical series SPV structure common to secondary marketplace platforms, with a $10K minimum placing it in the accessible accredited investor tier. The 506(b) exemption and 3(c)(1) election are standard for sub-100 investor funds avoiding SEC registration, consistent with single-company exposure vehicles in the pre-IPO secondary market.
