Zurich-based venture capital investor, Redalpine, is launching its next private equity fund with a target target volume of CHF1 billion and an evergreen structure making it more attractive to a broader professional investor base.

The Summit Fund has an evergreen structure, which is unique in venture capital but typical in classic equity investment funds. This allows for diversification over time across multiple economic and innovation cycles while providing investors with partial liquidity of their shares.
