Versant Venture Capital VII, L.P. reported $600,000,000 sold from 74 investors of a $600,000,000 total offering as of the Form D filed December 17, 2018. The offering relies on Rule 506(b), which permits sales to accredited investors and to no more than 35 non-accredited investors who meet a sophistication standard, and prohibits general solicitation. Because the fund also relies on Section 3(c)(7), each investor must be a qualified purchaser, generally an individual with at least $5 million in investments. The filing reports no non-accredited investors. The filing lists the minimum investment as $0, meaning no minimum was stated. The Form D names JP Morgan Securities LLC (CRD 18718), associated with None as the recipient of sales compensation soliciting in NY.
