With over 30 years of experience investing in novel life science technologies, we understand how challenging it can be to turn a great idea into a great company.
We are comfortable evaluating and taking significant scientific risks. Our team and network of advisors includes a number of former executives with first-hand experience of these challenges, who are available to provide support and advice when it is needed.
We also understand that building a successful company takes time and patience. Our team is committed to building real value over the long-term.
