This builds upon the success of their inaugural fund, which raised $15 million. With a combined total of $45 million under management across both funds, Covera Ventures is well-capitalized to continue its targeted investment approach within the critical infrastructure and enterprise software sectors, supporting a new generation of innovative technology companies.
