Investment thesis

Leva Capital focuses on early-stage MedTech and Digital Health startups, aiming to bridge the gap in early-growth healthcare capital in Canada. It invests initially at the pre-seed and seed stages with the intent to make follow-on investments in Series A rounds, and is agnostic to the specific area of healthcare. As a value-added, founder-focused investor, it offers hands-on support in regulatory guidance, intellectual property strategy, and commercialization, and incorporates ESG principles into its investment process. It also operates the Leva Accelerator Program, providing a customized curriculum to support the earliest-stage healthcare companies.
