Thesis

Invest in early-stage digital health companies that empower informed, connected health consumers to make confident decisions about their health. Focus on removing friction from healthcare, providing transparency, and enabling people to take control of their health journey through technology. Particular emphasis on solving structural problems in chronic disease management, mental health, reproductive health, aging in place, and specialty care navigation.

Likely not a fit for

Avoid healthcare blockchain/crypto without clinical value, wearable-only solutions, companies lacking healthcare domain expertise, solutions without clear competitive differentiation, and ventures focused on system disruption without clear consumer benefit. Not interested in pure hardware plays, pharmaceutical manufacturing, or medical device hardware without software differentiation.
