Investment thesis
BiomedVC backs the next generation of European life science entrepreneurs, helping translate scientific innovation from academic labs into venture-backed biotechs developing therapeutics for high-unmet medical needs. The firm makes initial Seed and Series A investments, leads and co-leads rounds, and reserves capital for follow-on financings. It focuses on continental Europe with an emphasis on the DACH region, particularly Switzerland and Germany. BiomedVC continues the legacy of predecessor BioMedPartners, one of the earliest life-science-focused early-stage VCs in continental Europe. The firm is raising its new fund, BiomedInvest IV, and has already built a significant portfolio of biotech start-ups in Switzerland and Germany.
