TechFlow news, January 9 — Ben Horowitz, co-founder of venture capital giant Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), announced the firm has just raised over $15 billion in funding, accounting for 18% of total U.S. venture capital investments in 2025.
The new funds include the American Dynamism Fund ($1.176 billion), Application Fund ($1.7 billion), Bio and Health Fund ($700 million), Infrastructure Fund ($1.7 billion), Growth Fund ($6.75 billion), and other venture strategies ($3 billion).
Horowitz emphasized that a16z's mission is to ensure the United States wins the technological competition over the next 100 years, particularly in the two critical technology stacks of artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency. The firm will focus investments in these areas and apply these technologies across multiple industries including biology, health, defense, public safety, education, and entertainment. He warned that if the U.S. loses its global leadership in key technologies such as AI and crypto, it would undermine its economic, military, and cultural advantages.
