Private equity firms Wheatsheaf and GV led a $150m Series D funding round in Benson Hill, a foodtech company. Other new and returning investors included Argonautic Ventures, Caisse de Dépôt et Placement du Québec, Emart, GS Group, Louis Dreyfus Company, iSelect Fund, Fall Line Capital, Mercury Fund, Prelude Ventures, Prolog Ventures, S2G Ventures and other strategic and family office investors. “As a firm, we are focused on investing in innovation that delivers the right calories and nourishment for a growing global population in a less commodity-driven food system.
