About

New Leaf Venture Partners is an early and growth-stage investor exclusively focused on healthcare technology. We invest across four sectors of healthcare technology: biopharmaceuticals, information convergence, medical devices and life science tools. In Biopharmaceuticals we invest from seed (creation) stage through to IPO and beyond. We look for large unmet medical needs, strong science, well differentiated technologies, and high-quality pre-clinical and clinical development programs. In Information Convergence (which includes healthcare IT, tools and diagnostics) we invest from early stages through to companies with revenues of $100m+. We have a similar approach in Medical Devices (where we look for important medical devices with the power to reduce costs and improve efficiencies in the healthcare system) and Life Sciences (where we look for products that accelerate the discovery process, uncover novel insights into the biology of disease and health, and personalize diagnoses and treatment).
