Bridging the Gap Between Private and Public Markets.

We invest across the global healthcare industry and investments are made across the capital structure in one of two complementary strategies: private equity and public equity.

Private Equity
Our initial platform established in 2013.

Public Equity
A long-biased strategy launched in 2018.

We seek to deliver superior returns through our understanding of value across private and public markets.

Global Knowledge. Local Talent. Cross Market Expertise.

We aim to reap synergies across our private equity and public equity platforms, by attempting to leverage the strength of our global franchise to source and secure opportunities for our investors in high-impact life science innovation.
