Abstrakt: S2G, a venture fund based in Chicago and backed by Walmart heir Lukas Walton, is seeking to raise a $1 billion fund by adding outside investors for the first time. The firm, which has been in operation for a decade, is spinning off as a separate entity from Walton's Builders Vision organization and has registered as an independent investment adviser with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission. S2G aims to raise $1 billion, with Walton providing about half the capital. This move will raise the fund's profile, attract talent, and increase the amount of venture capital available in Chicago.
