Leaving the World a Better Place

We invest in the human and planetary health ecosystem at the earliest stages. For over 50 years we've served iconic biotech entrepreneurs including Amgen, Genentech, Heartstream, Intuitive Surgical, Millennium Pharmaceuticals and Mammoth Biosciences. The ability to marry the engineering approach of information technology with advances in human and planetary health will re-invent trillion dollar industries.
