B Capital Group, an investment firm led by Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin, is seeking $2.5 billion for its third fund dedicated to backing technology-driven companies, according to a memo sent to limited partners this week.

“We have already started to warehouse investments for this new fund,” Saverin’s B Capital co-founder Raj Ganguly wrote in the memo reviewed by Bloomberg News, which outlined plans for a first close of the vehicle in December and January.
