Ven­rock joins the biotech VC fundrais­ing game, toss­ing $447M in­to a $4.3B pot of new mon­ey

It’s not un­usu­al to find the part­ners at Ven­rock trav­el­ing in the A-list sec­tion of biotech. They like to find some of the more ma­ture star­tups head­ed to­ward IPOs or some new ar­rivals on the pub­lic mar­ket — stick­ing with deep-pock­et in­vestors look­ing to do big things. And they clear­ly have a big ap­petite for rounds that can range up in­to the stratos­phere.

It looks like they’re go­ing to re­main in that neigh­bor­hood for some time to come.
