A leading Venture Capital firm investing in early-and growth stage life science companies has multiple offices in Western Europe. The firm is focused on investing in the most promising life science companies in the fields of biotechnology, therapeutics, medical technology, diagnostics and digital health. With funds totaling EUR 1.0 billion, and more than EUR 430 million committed to life sciences, the firm has been actively supporting world class private companies translating true innovation into successful businesses with exceptional growth. To date, the firm has invested in over 50 innovative life science companies. Initial ticket size ranges between EUR 5-10 million and up to EUR 20 million over the life of the investment.

The firm invests mainly in Europe and selectively in US across five broad areas:  Therapeutics, Medtech, Diagnostics, Digital Health and Biotechnology and R&D tools. Regarding therapeutics, the firm focuses on early-stage companies with preclinical proof of concept data or about to enter the clinic, with a preference for companies developing highly innovative technology platforms, or with early clinical data. In the other fields, the firm prefers companies with product candidates (with strong IP protection) approaching regulatory approval or companies who have already launched a first product and have some early market traction in the single million digit range.

The firm typically requests a board seat and looks for a strong and experienced management team while supporting highly talented entrepreneurs.
