The firm is a joint venture investment vehicle established by a family office and a strategic investment partner. The firm focuses on later-stage medical device opportunities, particularly Series A and Series B companies approaching regulatory approval. The firm primarily evaluates opportunities in the United States and Western Europe, while remaining open to select companies based in Asia. Typical check sizes range from approximately $500K to $1.5M, and the firm prefers to lead transactions. The firm may also co-invest alongside affiliated investment vehicles to support later-stage, revenue-generating companies that demonstrate a clear path to exit within a relatively short time horizon. Through long-standing industry relationships, the firm helps introduce portfolio companies into a specialized medical technology ecosystem to accelerate growth and commercialization.  

The firm evaluates opportunities across medical device categories but maintains a strong focus on implantable technologies. Core areas of interest include neuromuscular and musculoskeletal indications, particularly orthopedic and spine implants. The firm also reviews opportunities in cardiology, vascular and peripheral devices, surgical technologies, and select oncology-related technologies. Companies should typically be approaching regulatory approval and demonstrate validated technology and clinical utility.  

From a company and management team perspective, the firm requires board representation and at minimum takes an observer seat in portfolio companies. The firm seeks companies with proven technology, clear regulatory pathways, and strong commercial potential within established clinical markets.
