Summary
Pear VC has raised $333m for its fifth flagship venture capital fund, according to AltAssets, with the vehicle down almost 23% from the size of its predecessor fund. The reduced target underscores the difficult fundraising conditions that many venture managers have faced, as limited partners have become more selective and concentrated their commitments.

Alongside the close, the firm has promoted three executives to general partner. The source headline confirms the promotions, though the available text does not detail the individuals' names or roles.

The primary source is a paywalled excerpt, so further details on the fund's strategy, investor base, and deployment plans could not be verified from the available material. Allocators seeking the full terms should consult the original AltAssets report.
