The four news beats, and what separates them
Private-markets coverage blurs together if the categories are not kept distinct. These four beats separate capital going into companies from capital changing hands, and both from capital being raised by the funds themselves.
| Beat | What it reports | Stories |
|---|---|---|
| Deal news | Funding rounds raised by companies, typically minority stakes taken by venture capital firms | 100 |
| Buyout news | Control transactions — acquisitions, take-privates and secondaries by private equity firms | 50 |
| Fund news | New vehicles raised and closed by VC and PE fund managers | 30 |
| Transition news | Partner and executive moves between firms, and new hires at fund level | 30 |
Frequently asked questions
What does this venture capital news service cover?
Four beats across the private markets. Deal news reports funding rounds raised by companies. Buyout news reports acquisitions, take-privates and secondary transactions by private equity firms. Fund news reports new vehicles raised and closed by fund managers on both sides. Transition news reports partner and executive moves between firms.
What is the difference between deal news and buyout news?
Deal news covers capital going into a company in exchange for equity, typically a minority stake taken by venture capital firms in a priced round. Buyout news covers control transactions, where private equity firms acquire a majority or the whole of a business, often using debt alongside equity. The distinction is control and stage rather than deal size.
Is the venture capital news free to read?
Yes. Every story on this page and in the archive is free to read, with no paywall, registration or account required.
How often is the private equity news updated?
Stories are added daily as they are reported. The most recent story on this page is dated September 9, 2026.
How can I search past venture capital and private equity news?
This page shows the most recent stories in each category. The full archive holds earlier coverage organised by the same four beats, and the news search finds stories by title. Both are linked from the top of the listing.

Can I submit a press release?
Yes. Venture capital firms, private equity firms and their portfolio companies can send funding, buyout, fund-close and personnel announcements for editorial consideration through the contact page. Submissions are reviewed rather than published automatically.
