We're a venture capital firm specializing in life sciences. Since our launch in 2001, we’ve supported more than 20 young companies. We invest in traditional healthcare opportunities as well as emerging areas — such as nutrition, wellness, and green technology — in which we’ve built one of the largest portfolios in the country. We also have keen interest in platforms and tools that enable all of life science.

Our firm was created by people with both investment know-how and direct experience in getting new ventures off the ground. We use this expertise to invest in what we know best: exceptional opportunities in their early stages. And then we take an active, ongoing role in helping entrepreneurs develop the right strategy, team, and connections to succeed.
