Our dedicated team of seasoned healthcare investors provides strategic capital tailored to healthcare and pharma business timelines, whether to develop or launch new medicines, make asset acquisitions, or fund strategic projects.
We invest across the sector and have partnered with companies in drug development and marketing, devices and diagnostics, generics, pharma and healthcare business services, and contract research, development and manufacturing.
We provide flexible and custom solutions and typically make investments in the form of non-dilutive financing or growth capital. We can help fund launches, capital projects, R&D, product acquisitions, business carveouts and other strategic initiatives. Our partnerships usually include the following types, although these elements are often combined or take the form of novel structures.
Working with both private and public companies, we can offer custom financings which sit between common equity and secured debt. Our solutions often include convertible preferred equity, redeemable preferred equity or convertible debt with the ability to combine these with a secured financing.
