Health & Bio

Computing, AI, and biology are advancing at breakneck speed, propelling a new wave of category-defining healthcare and life sciences companies, with Europe at the forefront.

We are the first backers of ambitious, impatient, and relentless founders who fuse world-class AI/ML and product expertise with deep healthcare workflow, regulatory, and incentive knowledge.

If you’re building solutions that radically improve outcomes, access, or cost of care; unlock a new era of tech-enabled healthcare and life sciences services; power a secure, connected, AI ecosystem; transform discovery, delivery, or manufacturing of new therapies; or reinvent clinical trial simulation and execution – let’s talk.
