U.S.-based venture capital fund New Enterprise Associates raised $2.5 billion for its 13th fund and will allocate $375 million, or 15% of the total, to invest in Indian firms over 4 years with deal sizes between $30-80 million. The fund will focus on mid-market growth equity deals in sectors like services and clean technology. Bala Deshpande, a senior managing director at NEA, said emerging services sectors not previously organized are attractive, and that the fund has previously invested in logistics and financial software companies in India. While raising funds has been difficult in the past year, established funds that raised capital can expect fair valuations and modest returns.
