We strive to invest in companies that develop innovative drugs, medical devices and other technologies that improve patient care.

We focus on generating strong financial returns from our portfolio of venture companies. We invest in both private and public companies from an open evergreen fund. This funding structure enables us to take a long-term perspective.

With colleagues on the ground in Copenhagen, London, Singapore, San Francisco and Boston, we are well positioned in the major global life science hubs and can quickly respond to new and exciting investment opportunities wherever they emerge.

We invest in biotechnology, medical technology and digital health companies. Within biotech we primarily invest in companies with late preclinical or clinical stage compounds. In medtech and digital health, we prioritize commercial stage companies.

We work actively with the companies we invest in by serving on the Boards of Directors. Companies can also draw on our extensive network, as well as our commercial and scientific expertise within the life sciences.
