WASHINGTON--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--Today, Steve Case, Ted Leonsis and Donn Davis announced
that they have successfully raised $450 million in commitments to launch the Revolution Growth fund, surpassing the
fund’s target of $400 million set earlier this year.
The Revolution Growth fund will focus its investments in the Eastern United States, backing innovative, high-growth
companies that have the potential to disrupt existing business models. The Revolution Growth fund expects to make
a small number of investments – just 10-12 over a five year period – enabling Case, Leonsis and Davis to be hands
on in the companies they back. The Revolution Growth fund intends to make its first investment in early 2012.
Joe Manzinger, CEO of The Hillman Company, one of 24 institutional limited partners in the Fund, said: "The
investment professionals at Revolution Growth have well deserved reputations as effective company builders. They
are focused, driven and uniquely positioned to share invaluable insights with managers of high growth, consumer
oriented businesses. The Hillman Company is very excited to be a Limited Partner in the new fund."
