Investment thesis

CHV invests in early-stage MedTech companies developing breakthrough medical technologies that address significant clinical needs with meaningful market potential. It looks for visionary teams with strong technological foundations, clear regulatory pathways, and scalable, capital-efficient business models. The firm typically leads or co-leads initial investments and continues to participate in follow-on rounds through exit, adding value beyond capital via mentorship, industry connections, and hands-on operational guidance rooted in a deep MedTech network built over more than a decade.
