Now, trading platform Robinhood says it wants to give retail investors a chance to back that organization’s future graduates as it announced Robinhood Ventures Fund II (RVII), the second fund from Robinhood Ventures, on Wednesday (Aug. 5). “Historically, retail investors have been locked out of private companies in their earliest stages, which can be among the biggest wealth creation opportunities available,” the company said in a news release. “The next generation of promising startups is being built today,” said Sarah Pinto, head of Robinhood Ventures. “With Robinhood Ventures Fund II, retail investors no longer have to wait until a company’s IPO to be part of an early growth journey.” Robinhood Ventures in February introduced its first fund, Robinhood Ventures Fund I (RVI), saying it wanted to offer everyday investors access to private markets, with an initial portfolio of companies that included Airwallex, Ramp and Revolut.
