Investing in the future of healthcare
Particular Ventures invests in pre-seed and seed stage consumer-facing medical technology companies focused on the intersection of medical devices, digital health, wearables, and the democratization of healthcare. Optimal targets are consumer-facing medical or health products that rely on high quality product design, especially those with a user experience element that enables consumer empowerment with regard to health management. Our goal is to identify dynamic and strongly ethical entrepreneurs with a well-articulated business model and large unmet need where Particular Ventures can provide not only funding but guidance, advice, and introductions.
