Venture capital (VC) operation General Catalyst has reportedly raised almost $6 billion for technology startups.

The company, which has invested in Stripe, Snap and Mistral, could close its newest fund as soon as May, the Financial Times reported Sunday (April 28), citing sources familiar with the matter who say the funds will be invested in various sectors including defense, space, climate, FinTech and healthcare in Europe, India and the United States.
