LO Private Investing

Been seeing a lot more private investments made by LOs this year: Wellington (Vanta, Glean), Fidelity (Applied Intuition, Nuro, Plaid) T. Rowe (OpenAI, Ramp, Nuro), Blackrock (Applied Intuition, PsiQuantum, Plaid), and Franklin.

Who at these firms are doing these investments? Do they have dedicated private investors or is it your traditional LO stock picker? Where are they deploying capital from (just the mutual funds?)
