Generated from EDGAR primary sources

EquityZen Growth Opportunity Fund VII LLC - Series 1 is a Delaware pooled investment fund vehicle filed by EquityZen Advisors LLC that raised $5.6M from 105 investors under Rule 506(b) and Section 3(c)(1). The minimum investment is $4,000. This is an amended filing and part of EquityZen's private equity platform, which operates approximately 150 related EDGAR entities offering access to pre-IPO company shares.

This 506(b) private equity fund reflects EquityZen's typical SPV structure with a low $4K minimum investment, enabling access to pre-IPO secondary market opportunities typically reserved for institutional investors. The 105-investor count approaches the 3(c)(1) exemption limit of 100 beneficial owners, consistent with a democratized secondary market model in the private equity category.
