Fund History

ICONIQ's venture and growth arm invests through the ICONIQ Strategic Partners series rather than through funds branded ICONIQ Growth. Eight generations are registered, running from ICONIQ Strategic Partners around 2013 through Strategic Partners VIII, formed in 2025 and filed that December with no capital yet called. Strategic Partners VI was formed in 2021, and Strategic Partners VII, formed in 2022, had $1.26B sold in its main vehicle as of an April 2024 amendment.

Each generation carries a parallel B vehicle plus a long series of deal-specific co-investment partnerships and family office co-invest vehicles, so the headline figure for any single fund understates the generation. Every filing declares an indefinite offering amount, so no target sizes are disclosed and no limited partners are named. The firm reports more than $100B in assets under management across investment management, venture and growth, impact and real assets. Blue Owl Capital acquired a 6 percent stake in the management company in 2020.
