Generated from EDGAR primary sources

EquityZen Growth Technology Fund LLC - Series 540 is a Delaware-based pooled investment fund filed by EquityZen Advisors LLC on 2020-08-26, raising $1.2M from 56 investors under Rule 506(b) and Section 3(c)(1). The offering has a $10K minimum investment and is part of the EquityZen platform, which operates nearly 1,900 related pre-IPO vehicles. This is an original filing with no sales commissions disclosed.

This pre-IPO pooled fund uses the standard 506(b)/3(c)(1) exemption structure typical of private secondary market vehicles, with a $10K minimum investment threshold that positions it as retail-accessible compared to institutional-only offerings. The 56-investor count against $1.2M raised (~$21K average check) reflects a small-ticket, high-participant model common to platform-enabled pre-IPO access vehicles.
