NeuroVentures Fund LP (the “Fund”) is a targeted $20 million venture capital fund dedicated primarily to investing in companies engaged in the development and marketing of drugs, devices, therapeutics, diagnostics and other medical products and technologies for neuroscience markets.  The mission of the Fund is to invest in the highest quality companies, in terms of management, products, technology and science, which are addressing the broad set of unmet medical needs in diseases and disorders of the Central Nervous System. 

Over the next few years, we expect the Fund will establish a portfolio of 10 to 12 leading CNS companies of various types, at various stages of development, and targeting multiple market segments.  We believe NeuroVentures investment model of focused expert resources and portfolio approach will provide the foundation for a follow-on fund similarly focused on CNS investments.

  As a focused fund, NeuroVentures investment advantage is based on its focus, expertise, and extensive contacts in the medical, scientific and venture capital communities.  We leverage these resources and capabilities to identify the most promising new companies.   In addition, we look for opportunities where we can contribute more than capital. 

Our strategy is to target investments in the range of $200,000 to $2,000,000.  We are looking to diversify in the following three ways:

1.      Development stage (discovery, development, market)
2.      Company type (biopharmaceutical, device, diagnostic, other)
3.      Market focus (neurodegeneration, pain, stroke, cancer, etc.)

We are committed to taking leading roles with portfolio companies and providing time, expertise, and contacts to assist our companies in the successful formation, funding and execution of their business strategies.   We believe this hands-on approach has helped us solidify our reputation as valued investors both with our portfolio companies and other venture investors. 

We are actively seeking investment opportunities that meet the following investment criteria:

  • Proven management team
  • Products that address the mechanism of disease or dramatically impact patient outcomes
  • Products with market potential > $100 million
  • Strong intellectual property position and competitive advantage
  • Well-defined regulatory and reimbursement strategy
  • Milestone-driven development strategy with focus on successful follow-on financings
  • Clear exit strategy with multiple options
