The close of PXV Fund II more than triples assets under management to $725 million in less than two years since the closing of the inaugural PXV Fund I, which launched Perceptive’s early-stage venture fund strategy. PXV Fund II includes existing investors from the inaugural fund, new investors including top-tier asset managers, endowments, foundations, family offices, and notable individual investors, and all of the PXV Fund II Partners.
