The Dallas-based investment firm Disruptive, whose past bets include Palantir, Airbnb, and Spotify, announced a $10 billion fund to back at least 10 late-stage companies, with checks of up to $1 billion, it said Tuesday.
It’s one of the biggest fundraises of the year so far, aiming to back (what else?!) the capital-intensive fields of AI and defense. The WSJ first reported earlier this month that the firm was seeking to raise the fund and by then had already secured at least $7.5 billion in capital commitments.
