INVESTMENT FOCUS
Creating Value Where Opportunity Lies
We invest in public development-stage and commercial-stage companies that are generating revenue, preparing for commercial launch, or operating in late stages of development. We focus on undervalued companies, primarily in the healthcare sector, and bring particular expertise in the specialty pharmaceutical industry. We are active investors that strive to cultivate attractive outcomes by working with management teams and board directors to support growth and build successful businesses.
