Insight Partners diversifies AI bets instead of piling into OpenAI or Anthropic
Insight Partners is avoiding heavy concentration in a single AI company even as venture capital flows toward OpenAI and Anthropic. Co-managing partner Devyn Parekh says long-term performance has favored diversification, and investors do not want outsized exposure. He also warns valuations are heating up like 2021 and prefers smaller early checks with follow-on funding once growth is proven. The firm prioritizes liquidity and says it returned more than $20 billion over two years.
